as the blog era talk continues, just want to bring this back to the top. leaving @RubyHornet out of the discussions is missing a large part of the story.

I think it’s safe to say that most Hip Hop excursions start out of passion and love for the art before any money changes hands. Give us a pound if you’ve paid dues and now ready to receive. defprez - “Paper” music.closedsessions.com/paper

If any young writers want the keys to rubyhornet, let me know. Looking for the next generation to keep the spirit alive. This site gave me so much, I want to give it to someone else - @DJ_RTC

Another classic blog era moment. I need to get @RubyHornet going again. Any young writers want to just have at it?

January 18, 2011. @FreddieGibbs headlining the Metro and spits this crazy acapella. It would later become his verse on "Scottie Pippen" an essential Blog Era hit and a @RubyHornet favorite. That RH Vimeo has some gems. Some motherf*cking gems. Enjoy this one. So dope.
