You may/may not be fully aware of how authentic that statement pictured above is. But, if you’ve ever sat in the leather executive-style computer chair, you know how challenging the task can be. Count off how many sites you’ve seen fall by the wayside, updates trailing off until you notice that the last update was weeks or even months ago. Or maybe you started your own little crummy blog (don’t trip, we all started with little crummy blogs) only to realize that there were too many other more important things to do for you to bother with trying to hold it down. Why do that when you could play Xbox, casually download mp3′s, stir up a ruckus in the comments section of other blogs and be a 140-character menace on Twitter?
As far as lapdogs for the labels go, MTV and BET fell off long ago and the same goes for their print counterparts in The Source and XXL. DJs get their nuts playlists handed to them by Clear Channel.How many of you really check for Sirius satellite? So where’s that leave you?
That’s why eskay, Dre and Nation are important. To anybody who knows, they know that what eskay et. al do isn’t just “post mp3s,” which is the common knock against him. He posts new music because those in need come knocking @ his e-doorstep, asking him to share their music with the rest of the world. Nah Right has been and remains one of the main conduits for this rap shit. It’s why motherfuckers email me asking can I help them get their tracks posted over there (as idiotic as that sounds. So yeah, managers, stop asking me that).
It’s also why eskay has a commercial now. Remember, he’s part of the reason the internet exists so it’s only right that the face of rap on the net get pub (and presumably a check) to rep for one of these companies.
So goddamn right I’m posting it. Click it, view it. View it again. Shit, go buy one them motherfuckin’ Nokia 3G Booklets lil niglet (Teef, see what I did there?). ‘Tis good.
Because every time he wins, that’s one more door knocked down that’s putting me closer to having one of these sneaker companies asking me what colors I want on my custom models. The blogger edition trick! Annnd I’m gonna have Alex do my laces.

*dead* at the way eskay struts with the laptop into the highline.
its a good look though, I know y’all niggas would definitely love to cash that nokia cheque.
^^^
That shit had me laughing for days.
Anytime Gotty posts something more than two paragraphs, you already know it’s a must read lol.
Much respect to the NahRight crew. They are the best @ what they do and I, myself, have stopped by NR on numerous occasions to stockpile on MP3′s. 35M plus hits don’t lie.
yo what’s the name of the song playing in the background?
As PE once said,
“It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back!”
Great shit Gotty! I think the general populous thinks blogging is sweet….that is until they throw up a “crummy blog” and see for themselves that too keep up it takes a lot of hard work and dedication. This site has definitely been a inspiration to be to keep it going and work a little harder at creating quality content!
authentic speak. blogging takes discipline. it didn’t click until about a year ago that there’s more to it then just posting the latest release first.
also, thanks for the chunk of change ep.
sincerely,
owner of a crummy blog

===============================================
As a writer of a crummy blog, I co-sign this to the fullest. Shit ain’t easy at all. Much respect to all those who do this and even more for those who do it well. I’m not there yet, but I’m in it for the long haul.
And as much as I give Nah’s three headed monster shit, I give credit where credit is due. Nah Right is the new Hot97. The new Video Music Box.
Eskay can buy plenty of Angus Burgers with that Nokia $$$.
applaud this man. its good to see eskay win. he’s birthed so many sites.
he’s the father abraham of this blog shit.
i cosign this post.
Anytime Gotty posts something more than two *lines*, you already know it’s a must read lol.
*fixed*
TSS > 2DB > Nah Right
Much respect to NahRight, TSS, and the rest that paved the way.
Bloggers click for free !
It’s good to see hard work, dedication, and any uncanny resemblance to Bun B pay off. lol
TC I was dying at his George Jefferson strut with the Nokia as well.
lol at the feeble raise of the hand in search of a taxi that will never come. :(
Definitely not easy but when you see progress even in the smallest amount it’s hard to quit; at least for me.
Damned bloggers. Y’all kilt off mah newspapers and magazines. You know–real writing. These youngins and their clickety-posting-linkin-tweetin-bookfacin-you’s and tubes…
I remember when we just scribbled all this crap on PostIt notes and cocktail napkins then looked at it like “nah!” Then threw it out and kept it movin.
Filters, dammit. Quality control. I don’t care abt this fourcorner-mobo-mp3 crap. No more!
*looks around*
Nurse!! Where’s my tapioca pudding? And who moved my TV clicker… I wanna watch Price Is Right!
Blogging , been at this shit for a minute.. Blaks Lair was going when Gotty was Blogging..Some of us oldtimers are still at it..I’ve seen alot of my friends close up shop and/or got tired the record label and DCMA hassles.. anyway look for great things in upcoming year..
Peace

Yup blogging takes discipline and dedication. Nahright may get a lot of crap for their constant stream of content but they set the model for breaking new urban music on the innanet. You’re not obligated to like it but you have to respect it especially considering how NMC constantly gets exclusives.
True shit about having to be disciplined I just recently started my own blog! Also keeping it updated is 1 of the hardest things to do although after a while it has gotten a little easier to do so!
The Nokia 3G will be old news when Apple drops the Apple Tablet sometime later this year..
Fresh respected.
I know firsthand how difficult it is to maintain a crummy blog.

^see? last post February 2010. Dammit.
I wanted to cop that sucker back when it came out, too, but I went with the full-on laptop. Which has served me well (pleasedontcrashagainpleasedontcrashagain).
