Lots of people should buy this album so that Mike can afford more than one jacket. I've seen that green one at the show I went to, in some grindtime vids, and in the I Rock video. While it's a nice jacket, a rapper of OME's skill should be able to diversify his wardrobe.

I seriously think you crept up behind him in Seattle (yh), had your handy rape kit stainless steel scalpel at the ready, cut a tiny swatch of fabric off the jacket and you now wear it around your neck inside of a locket.

You have Mike's jacket confused with Intuition's back hair- which is an understandable mistake.

I retired the army dude jacket. I wear this brown leather one all the time now. Im convinced that I can only wear one jacket at a time.

Between this and my not realizing Odium was tall, it's starting to dawn on me that perhaps I was even more drunkhigh that night than I recall.

Hooray beerdrugs.

ACthePD is half-dj/half-billy goat. He beatboxes Audio Two songs on a pan-flute there.

Finally got a chance to listen to this.

It's a well written, well produced album. Lyrics are on point, but I'm just not feeling Mike's flow over the course of a full album.

Just personal preference here, obviously lots of people are really enjoying the album. I'm definitely interested in hearing a Swim Team album though.

Mike you seem to be a good guy, good luck with your future endeavors.
