Torae starts off with a live performance of But Wait… and then him and Masta Ace go back and forth performing Hold Up. Double Barrel is in stores June 2nd. Support underground hip hop… hell, support real hip hop music. Torae’s one of the best up and comers, Masta Ace is a legend, so this footage speaks for itself. Press play!
Torae and Marco Polo present the next edition of Double Barrel Tuesdays. Masta Ace speaks on how the record Hold Up was made. Masta Ace talks about how it was initially a freestyle, but built into a song for Torae’s album.
Masta Ace then goes on to speak about his upcoming projects, including A&E… Masta Ace and Ed OG collaborating together on an album dropping this summer. Masta Ace drops the feature list, including KRS-One, De La Soul and Large Professor. Masta Ace talks about the release of a DVD on his life, which will be packaged with a CD of new Masta Ace music. Definite good news.

Anyway, so let me go on this rant, and don’t take this as being bitter because I could care less. Rather take this as what me speaking on what I’ve seen from experience. I love hip hop music, and there are a lot of dope rap artists. Every artist in this video has delivered that realness time and time again and represent hip hop culture to the fullest. Thus, rightfully so, I’m gonna repeat some of what they said. Skyzoo and Sha Stimuli are right… rappers suck because they stay lying. No, I’m not just talking about Officer Ricky. I mean all these fake ass thugs trying to get in the game. Stop talking about the years you spent in prison and trying to throw up your record on Worldstar. DOCS is available to the public, and yeah we know you didn’t do half the time you said you did. You’re not the cornerstone of your movement when you have to build a rep in another city because your own hometown doesn’t believe you!!
Rappers need to learn their history. Pay homage to the dudes that basically crafted the flow that you stole from the latest popular artist. Props to Focus who recognizes this, and in doing so has created two crazy hot rap songs in Homage to Pete Rock and Homage to Premier. Rapper’s need to stop getting gassed. Just because somebody’s not feelin’ your bullish wack ass rap songs does not mean they’re a hater. It means you f-ing suck! You’re not dope because you put out a 20 track mixtape and have 11 paid features and 9 wack freestyles. If you can’t make a song, stop rapping. It’s the best thing you’ll ever do in your “career”!!
Damn that rant felt good. I f-ing hate rappers! Shout out to Pack FM, Skyzoo, Sha Stimuli, Iron Solomon, Poison Pen, Masta Ace, DMC, Scram Jones, Sadat X, and everyone else who f-ing hates rappers.
