If you don't know what that is then please don't reply to this thread, go listen to Ying Yang twins and Gucci Mane, no hate....

    Name 'em then.....or will it affect their street cred ? In fact I wonder if Waka Floka and Gucci Mane and Soulja Boy are really that clever, the reverse psychology of playing dumb to sell to the masses and you really are clever and playing them all for the fools they are ??? Or am i thinking about it too much ???

    Is this something he has said in interviews or what ? I mean it's not like the same as saying I am a Hoover Crip or whatever garbage that all these rappers are always too quick to let you know about......

    lmao!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    so it is just assumed that Chino XL is MENSA cos he has such devastating punchlines and metaphors ??

    someone mentioned Canibus, but if that weretrue surely he would not have hooked up with Wyclef and produced such a ? awful first album.....or joind the army.....

    Can-I-Bus was dope. And are you anti-American?

    nah man, Can-I-Bus was garbage....when you compare Beasts From The East or a lot of the freestyles he did (Fantastic 4, Clue ? and a whole host of other ? ) to the album he dropped there is no comparisons, granted How We Roll and First Round KO are great tracks but there was some real garbage beats on there and on a first album you need the nbeats aswell as the lyrics, and no question he got lyrics....

    and no I am not anti american, sorry if it came across that way, i just meant if he wassintelligent he would have realised that he was joining to fight a war that could not be won in a place where no one had ever beaten the home team and that the actual reasons for that war were all wrong, and could be deemed as illegal......but i dont want to get on a political tip, i meant it more along the lines of if you smart you do not join the army....

    agreed, but chino xl really is, look it up, i know most of us don't trust all of the info on wikipedia. and the canibus thing was a joke because someone beat me to chino xl. i'm pretty sure it's just him.

    ^I think he's just saying that if the stereotypical "intelligent" person who plans to live a long time and do many intellectual things is joining the army, he/she is reducing the odds of this happening by putting life at risk.

    so u anti military?
    eat a ? ?

    i aint anti-defending yourself, dont get it twisted.

    HOWEVER

    going to fight over oil in foreign lands and lying to the masses about it is whole 'nother story.....


    and was that a rhetorical question about being anti military or did you assume that you knew me in some way and thought it was the cool thing to do and just say that ? ?
    and why you on some ? ? with that line ? why do all the disses on here that go back and forth on some ? ? , the dumbest least intelligble disses that take no imagination or thought, why not give me a reason why you think the military is something you believe in ?

    DO YOU NOT BELIEVE IN FREE SPEECH ? cos it would appear you getting emotional at the notion that i have an opinion that you don't agree with and you acting like a little child calling names...

    WHY DON'T YOU GROW UP AND ACT LIKE A MAN ??

    i'm glad someone is actually thinking about responses and not just balbbing insults cos they might disagree with an opinion that someone has, but yeah, you hit it on the head.....if you intelligent why would you lower the odds of you having a long and fruitful life, especially as Canibus would just be going in on the front line......
