Because I'm assuming you've never met this man before in your life. Am I incorrect?
This is why you shouldn't assume things

these posters are TRASH
So you've met him. Great. That takes your creepy factor down from a 100 to a 99....or is he literally your pop, uncle or grandfather?This is why you shouldn't assume things
Man, if I could figure out the hypnosis this man used to have you so enchanted and relentlessly loyal I could have girls from Miami to Dubai breaking down my doors to get to me

Who? K-Rino has been such a longtime fixture of Houston hip-hop that it's hard to imagine the underground without him. The Southside MC has been spitting street poetry for three decades, dating all the way back to his days at Sterling High School, where he battled his lyrical rivals in hallways and on street corners in Houston's gritty South Park neighborhood.
From those early rap battles emerged the South Park Coalition, H-Town's first rap clique, which set the bar high for local independent distribution and work ethic. As co-founder and driving force behind the S.P.C., K-Rino simply never put the mike down in the intervening decades.
Today, he has more than 20 albums under his belt and has spread his rapid-fire, streetwise wordplay to every corner of the globe -- all without the help of a major record label.

Music Scene Pet Peeves: "I got a couple!" K-Rino said. "My biggest would probably just be the lack of originality. You know, the game has turned pretty much into a copycat industry. People just kind of wait to see what's going to catch on, and what's going to get so-called 'hot,' and then they start to pattern themselves and pattern their careers after that.
"I'm from an era where people were not scared to be individuals and not scared to just be who they are, be original," he explains. "And all of those different artists were able to prosper just on the fact that they represented something different. I don't think you see that now. I think it's more of a cookie-cutter kind of game where if you have 50 artists in a pile, 45 of 'em are pretty much going to be the same guy. That kind of bothers me."
Five Desert Island Discs:
- Stevie Wonder, Songs in the Key of Life
- Sam Cooke, Greatest Hits
- Prince, Sign O' the Times
- T La Rock, Lyrical King (From the Boogie-Down Bronx)
- Boogie Down Productions, Criminal Minded
"Mixed in also is one I did here in Houston for one of my album-release concerts, for The Day of the Storm," he adds. "That was a pretty good one, also.
"The best show I ever saw? That's a tough one," he continues. "It may have been when I saw Prince at the Toyota Center one year. Either that, or when I saw Public Enemy at Warehouse Live. That was a pretty strong show. It's tough to say. I've seen so many great shows and great artists that it's hard to choose just one."
Current Projects: "I just completed a new album that will be out probably in the middle of March," the rapper says. "It's called The Maven, and it will be available on our Web site, www.southparkcoalition.webs.com, as well as iTunes.
"And I'm getting ready to do my 30-year anniversary event," he adds. "I started rapping in 1983, so this year marks 30 years with the pen and pad in my hand. We're going to do a big event, a big celebration at Warehouse Live on April 6.
"I want to see everybody who was ever affiliated with me and my career there that night, because it's going to be a special night."

It's not any kind of hypnosis, it's simply being real. I am relentlessly loyal 100 percent.

Think of it this way - 89% of the threads he's made on here aren't about K-Rino
We need a prediction thread for how many pages the next K-Rino album discussion thread is gonna do
People who hate K-Rino (@Tall Israeli @intilectual recipricol) will be all up in the thread, dancing, intimately familiar with all the lyrics and beats. The homey @blackslash gonna be up in there
I predict 25 pages
I'm even planning to listen to the album
But @The Ruler 09 isn't a Booth superstar though 
notPsychosiz
I started this gangsta sh-
Yeah... it was ridiculous listening to the radio back then. It would be Bills, No Scrubs, Independent Women, Call Tyrone by Eryka Badu... and they'd just play those shyts back to back.
It was likey a jewish music industry tactic to drive a wedge between black male / black female relationships. It persists to this day.
All that 'ladies leave your man at home, the club is jumpin jumpin' shyt is destructive to the black community.
Then you had Trina and Lil Kim still pushin the 'fukk dudes get money' agenda
Things were out of control musically with that agenda. And none of the male artists said anything except Sporty Thievz.
That is a good Rza song. I think its off Bobby Digital or Digital Bullet. I used to have that CD

The next K-Rino albums needs to be sticked. It really does, imagine how huge that thread would be lol.
Exactly, 89 percent of my threads have not been about K-Rino. I also did a search and I have 3 pages on KRS-One too. So that just shows I am just keeping it natural and real about all artists.
I'm sure the trolls won't get facts get in the way of their agenda and narrative though lol.
Anyway as I've posted, K-Rino is mentioned in books and numerous media outlets. And as I said tours worldwide. All indisputable unequivocal facts.

@intilectual recipricol will probably be the one to make it
True, what else does he have to do? Lol.
He literally spent his time making a thread breaking down the lyrics of an album he considers a 1/10

I honestly haven't seen anybody speak more about Illmatic than him on here.
