Wo ich grad meinen letzten Eintrag hier lese: Inzwischen hab ich uebrigens die Sapient-Instrumentals bekommen, musste sie allerdings bei iTunes beziehen, hardcopies gibts nuescht mehr... :-(
Sapient ist im Moment schwer beschaeftigt, weshalb auch ein Treffen vor 2 Wochen leider nicht zu stande gekommen ist... naja, lest selbst, die Highlights hab ich mal raus gepickt:

Sapient, and Debaser will be releasing three albums in three months for free download.
Sept. 1st Sapient: Make Morphine - The Remixes - A remix of Sapient's entire album Make More. Features production by Rev. Shines (of Lifesavas), Budo, Simple (of Sandpeople), Oldominion veterans Mr. Hill, Smoke & Pale Soul plus many more. A different producer for each song!
Oct. 1st Debaser: Back to Work - A long awaited follow-up to Crown Control. This free download will give you a taste of what they've been working on. Back To Work features Rasco (of Cali Agents), Luckyiam (of Living Legends) and Detroit standout Phat Kat. It's true. New Debaser. Suck it.
Nov. 1st Sapient: Famine Friends - Sapient's upcoming solo album and just one more reason why he is the most prolific hip-hop act coming out of the Northwest. With 3 music videos accompanying the album, Famine Friends proves that Sape lives by his promise to "Make More".

"This track is called "Luck-Eee" and it's produced by my Prime group member Sapient and if you can't tell by the slap, he freakin MURDERS it on the beats! This song was made just for The Present exclusively, ie. Just for YOU GUYS* It's a celebration of where Im @ right now and just me trying to spit that crack on a Sapient beat without getting ran over!
This is a glimpse into the future and the sound of "The Prime". Learn this song for future Lucky shows & most importantly, Please bump this with CAUTION!!!! (your speakers will thank you later*)
I Love u,
Luck-Eee"
"Oregon native IAME(I-am-me) has no problem confronting and questioning his role in society and constantly challenging it. On his sophomore album I Am My Enemy he gets personal. Confronting the generalities in Hip Hop that too many people think make you “real” such as bling, Escalades and proper gear, IAME examines his place with in the music industry and his community. This becomes apparent on such tracks as “Unlikely Candidate”. Speaking about Portland, where he lives, “Home to fake gangsters/and real hoodlums/who look at me like I ain’t shit cause I ain’t got no jewels or rings/but skip the superficial shit/just let the music spin/this user friendly way I speak truth has got them tuning in”. More then just a treatise on the superficialities of Hip Hop, the song speaks about Portland’s history citing a situation not unlike the Katrina disaster in New Orleans which happened in 1943 at Van Port City, Oregon.
I Am My Enemy will keep your body moving and your head bangin’. You’ll gain a little knowledge with each nod.
