I don't know what kiwiburger is talking about -- that show at BSMF was spectacular, and I don't even like rap (I would even go as far as saying I hate the genre). I really enjoyed myself, which surprised me a lot, and I really think it's awesome that he's all about the real band and not all synth shit that most rappers are all about. Just my two cents, though.
