You ever get that excitement about going somewhere or doing something, that you start preparing weeks ahead (when it’s completely unnecessary)?
Not that I’ve actually been doing anything physically in preparation for it, but the 2008 Paid Dues festival will be taking place this Saturday in San Bernardino. For those of you that don’t know Paid Dues, it’s a HUGE independent hip hop festival thrown in collaboration by Murs (LA rapper) and Guerilla Union (who throws Rock the Bells). This will be my first one and I am fuckin’ glad that it is. Why, you ask? Tech N9ne and SLAUGHTERHOUSE!
I mean, the entire 9-hour line up is bananas…nothing but dope independent/underground MC’s. We’re talking about a show full of REAL MC’s. Dudes that really rap. I’m definitely not a “fan” of the majority, but that’s just comes from my preference. The whole show will be dope , but if it wasn’t for Nina and Slaughter, I probably wouldn’t be going.
