Welcome to Brian Smith aka Carsiness’ my space account.
Let the cannabis leaves background welcome you and introduce you into the emcee from Tampa Area, Florida ‘s world.
Just chill and let the music invade your ears…
Cold Shoulder Ruff is introduced by quite surrealistic sounds that pour into your ears like rain drops. The light instrumental background is compensated by Carsiness’ gritty voice.
Carsiness introduces you into the ghetto’s dirty world made of sluts and hustlers. Feel the disgust, feel the dirtiness…feel the gangsta atmosphere of the whole track.
Shake Yo Ass starts like a gig and is all about a gogo dancer. While the song goes hardcore, enjoy Carsiness’ nice flow and instrumentals. Written in a pimping style the song is well handled.
Fat Fuck starts in a very rhythmic and offensive way. The track is aimed at an enemy that gets dissed badly. Don’t mess with Carsiness unless you wanna land in the garbage can.
Carsiness has found a lot of inspiration in Eminem’s music. Other valuable rappers like Tupac, Snoop Dogg and many more have also influenced Brian Smith aka Carsiness. Be so curious at check him out here.

They Wanna Kill Me

Electric guitar sounds mixed up with sitar sounds and rhythmic beats that give a heartbeat tempo to the track introduce you into Obie’s world.
Since he’s been signed to Shady Records, Detroit rapper Obie Trice has made some enemies. Success often goes with jealousy and Obie nearly lost his life at New Year’s Eve. He was shot in the head while driving on a freeway.
Fortunately, Obie was safe after being shot. Till now, nobody has a clue about who tried to kill him.
O Trice handles his words in an incursive way, addressing to his enemies.
What motivates jealousy and envy?
I’d say: mainly people who feel insecure and uncomfortable with themselves. On the Detroit scene, emcees who have less success than others and experience difficulties in selling their Cds are more likely to be jealous of people who have reached success.
What can you do against arrogant pricks who are consumed by jealousy, even when they put your life in jeopardy?
Humor them. Make them losers look ridiculous.
This is part of Obie Trice’s lyrical strategy. While them losers are trying to get wealthy from the streets, Obie gets his money from the Billboard.
Some weak rappers just can’t stand talent. Instead of trying to improve their weaknesses and learn from gifted rappers, eradicating talent is an easier solution to them.
Obie is a true Detroit ghetto soldier who is not afraid to confront his enemies with their own stupidity.
He’s been close to death, with a bullet left in his head. But guess what, bitches? Obie is back, more confident and more energetic than ever.
You wanna kill him, bunch of losers? Obie is quite a legend. His music will live on forever anyway!

Enjoy the 7 Mile style!

Detroit DJ Babe, the 7 Mile DJ, introduces track Nr1 with some crazy noise in a good offensive Detroit style: scratches, bass, drums, keyboards are ready to conquer the world of hip hop. The intro is instrumentally and lyrically well handled. Words and instruments seem to explode like a grenade right to your ears. Be ready for war: DJ Babe is taking over with a mad style.
Followed by the excellent Workout 1 track where Street Child shows some nice flow delivery and some real good skills, the first track is just a foretaste of an original and interesting 26 tracks mixtape.
Jump is another lyrical track where listeners will enjoy Street Child’s rhyming ability. The track might remind you of a 50 Cent P.I.M.P style, because Street Child comes up with the mind of a hustler. The streets of Virginia are fully represented in his songs and Street Child has the qualities needed to make a good emcee: he can flow, he puts a lot of energy in his rhymes, handles beats and instrumentals very well.
Whateva You Wanna Do is rhythmic, introduced by various instruments( violins, drums, keyboard sounds etc) and nicely interrupted by scratches.
Be ready for some good hip hop. There is more to come on Street Child’s mixtape. Caught Up featuring Lloyd intelligently allies softness to raw elements.
Cleaning Out My Closet is built on an Eminem sample of « Cleaning Out My Closet » where Street Child puts a very personal note in the track and pours his heart out. Beautiful Eminem/ Street Child mixture that is definitely worth your attention.
You’re a hip hop head? Then you will probably also like Death Certificate that mixes up mad distorted sounds with Street Child’s crazy flow. Follow his scratches-interrupted speech and enjoy the music.
Nod your head to Do Or Die. Save yourself, Street Child is going down and enjoy the hustling style of the song. Beautifully handled, it won’t probably leave you indifferent. Just enjoy the way Street Child is hugging the streets, the man has some genuine talent and masters his art.
I particularly recommend you Workout1, Do Or Die and Breathe.
Oh yea…one more detail: Street Child’s mixtape is available for download for free here.
Discover this hot talent from Virginia and remember the name: Street Child, one of hip hop’s new raising stars.

This is exactly what happened to Tommy Lee at the Superbowl after bashing the D lol

I downloaded the talented artist’s mixtape in collaboration with DJ Babe. Expect more music put on paper soon:)

His words hit like a bulldozer and his crazy noise, his mad scratches are ready to take over the universe of rap music. Chris Barett aka Street Child truly represents the streets of Virginia Beach. Don’t sleep on Street Child’s Workout 1 song, because it is definitely worth your attention.
Street Child has a natural endowment for his raps. Spontaneous, offensive emcee with the mind of a fighter, one could barely stay indifferent in front of Street Child’s amazing skills. Street Child is not your average emcee. He blesses the mic with a speedy flow . I love the confidence he shows while spitting his venom.
Street Child also handles beats and instrumentals very well. I’d recommend any true hip hop head to check out this amazing talent’s my space account.
Bang Out is a very dynamic track that allies softness and street reality. Follow a hustler’s journey in the hood.
Raise Ya Glasses is also written in a hustler’s style. Street Child draws you the streets the way they are.
What does hip hop need more than ever? No contest: real emcees. Emcees who spit fire on the mic and who manage to create an enthusiastic audience thanks to their skills. Yes, the musician is a magician when he is highly talented, which is obviously the case here.
Street Child’s instrumentals’ East Coast sound might remind some of you of Jay Z. Chriss Barett is a skilled emcee with attitude. Don’t miss the chance! Check him out here.

Eric Miller is an emcee from Lacey, Washington, who has some interesting tracks to offer to his listeners on his my space account.
His first track, Internet Gangsta Street, is aimed at all those cyber gangstas posing as tough guys, spreading some harsh words in front of a computer screen but who are acting cowardly in real life.
The same « internet fags » have been very well described by Detroit emcee King James 3. It is so much easy to wear a mask and to act tough when you’re comfortably installed at home in front of your PC. With an incisive sense of humor, some good instrumentals and a good flow delivery, E. Miller drops his cyber enemies’ mask in no time. Real life wankstas, take up your make up, because E. Miller will make you appear in a true light.
Valley Of Death 70 is all about the struggle of a white emcee for credibility. The vocals and keyboards introduce a quite surrealistic atmosphere, E Miller takes the mic and makes you feel the intensity his fight through his rhymes.
Close Your Eyes is an emotional track aimed at all the people who have lost a beloved person. Keyboard sounds and rhythmic beats will lead you into the very emotional atmosphere of remembrance of our beloved ones who have passed away.
Sometimes we have no answers for such losses. Death is something definitive in the world of the living and the pain is present when someone we love dies and goes away forever. I recommend this song to all of you.
Fallen Soldiers uses the same Martika sample Eminem has used for his Like Toy Soldiers songs. Fallen Soldiers is built as a diss track that targets emcees who lack realness.
Check out E Miller here.
