Don’t Change YOU to please THEM
As an artist, professional or just a person it seems as though we’re all in a constant struggle. The battle to decide how much of you, the real undiluted you should you present in any given situation. In the corporate world we “wear the clothes to fit the job we want” and in life we “adapt to our surroundings”. The problem is… how much can you change before you lose yourself? Does Superman pretend to be Clark or does Clark pretend to be Super? A lot of artist get caught up in the trending fad or gain so much notoriety for a gimmick that it becomes their whole persona. What do ya’ll think? have you ever had to check yourself because you saw yourself becoming someone, or something that you’re not… or simply dont want to be?

No More Slacking
Nigga I got bud 4 sale, CD’s 4 sale that I burned at the studio*, and more love on these streets than “papi” in a drought and all I fucking hear all day all night is “That shit is hot Chief!” and I wonder where did all the haterz go?

If We Don’t Act Now The Cause Is Lost!!!
As times get harder music supplements a lot of the drive that would have been lost to exhaustion. What would you do with out the custom soundtrack that you wake up and brush your teeth to? Drive to? Excersize to? Even work to?
Imagine the dul hell that is your life with out music- Porno with no funk, movies with too many akward moments, some people would have us all subjected to such torment*
I don’t know what’s worse no music or bad music: no one wants to listen to bad music everyone would rather turn the music off- right? There are too many people having to turn off their radios and systems because they can’t get enough KOTR! It’s not right for the artist here at KOTR to stand idly by while the fans suffer but there is one who would rather we hold on to your much needed relief : *NovyNova* “I have to tell the truth we sit here and listen to at least 5 times the amount of music than you[the fan] gets to hear!”
Well I say NO MORE! NO MORE SELFISHNESS- It’s time to spread the love…
The challenge is to get one million request for KOTR to release the full stash-
The Dead line is May 5th-
The PLAN: Spread the word through every social network, sn app, hood, block, crew, fam, friend and fellow fan to take out a brief moment to stand for something by visiting the site and leaving comments casting their votes and/or via your local radio stations by calling in to make your vote public or to request more Knights Of The Round.
The Pay Out: “More fuel to fight than life has to fight you with”… and KOTR T’s and exclusive previews and stuff like that…
So far we have: 1

Around the World
Peace ya’ll,
While sitting in the airport i started to think about how far the KOTR reach has been spreading. We’ve worked with producers on both coasts of the US and everywhere in between. We’ve had collaborations with producers from Croatia, Germany, Finland and many more. It’s actually kinda crazy when you think about it. and, since i thought about it… now you will too!
mandatory shout out to the producers making it happen… Rexxx, Dtunez, Al_PD, Ackryte, Cypria, Plukk and out hometown heroes J.O. and Unc Mike
Holla,
