At a rave tonight and the walking ego is on now, seriously, the washed up old crackhead looking c--t can barely even keep time anymore, still living off his 2000-2005 reputation if you ask me, when he were actually half decent, he's done these days, him still playing is getting embarrassing now tbh, can we send him to dignitas or something??

Better add the second biggest ego Keyes to that as well, I don't have a clue about MCing, but my 6 year old daughter could flow better and be more complex than him, glad GTYM is falling into the shit house, enemy has gone it alone, it's only a matter of time before any other artists with their heads screwed on follow. just saying.

There are a lot of 'up and coming' or less recognised MC's who are working much harder then the ones who think they only have to turn up and automatically be granted legendary status.
Their time will come

I used to quite admire the MCing on the Skelter tapes but I understand why MCs aren't much appreciated these days.
To be fair, though, they work much better on studio mixes. A bit more clinical, I'd say.
The current style of MCing does work much better on a studio mix, as opposed to the 90s style 'hyping the crowd up', simple rhymes etc MCing. I personally find MCs on studio mixes massively off putting though and rarely listen to them.
90's style MCs for me every time.

I'm really looking forward to seeing Storm at Summer Gathering this weekend. I hope he is on another set other than just Klubfiller's. I haven't seen Storm in AGES, and even though he has obviously lost his timing, he always brings fantastic energy and hypes the crowd like no other. He also clearly eat, breathes and sleeps Hardcore. I reckon he will be buzzing to be back working for HTID!

One thing I've been glad about being a part of the Atlanta scene is that MCs were rarely ever booked. I can't stand MCs. I can understand maybe between sets, or at the very beginning of a set to get the crowd going, but once the vocals in the track kick in...I want to hear them! Those True Hardcore albums would have been so much better had they not had been flooded with pointless MCing. I also can't see why artists pull MCs into their produced tracks.

To be honest i dont mind mc's being actualy on tracks as aposed to mcing over the top in a set. Atleast when there on the track the vocals are perfectly processed to fit in so everything is clear and works.

Used to love mc's and storm in particular, but don't really listen to music as much as I used to, and I very rarely listen to live sets now, cause most of mine are on tape! and I don't have a tape deck anymore but I was listening to a breeze & styles set earlier on and the mc did get on my nerves a bit at times

At raves I'm not bothered about MC's. On live recordings now i only like specific ones. But on studio mixes i think it is completely pointless and doesn't sound right.

I barely notice them at raves, actually. That said, I've started to appreciate Obie the more I see him. Great MC.
