What We Fighting For?

We’ve been doing this for some time now, and that question always arises.  The reason it always does is because we haven’t taken the easy way out/in.  We’ve taken the road less traveled and we’re still on this journey.  We’ve had to fight for our way to this spot.  We’ve had to fight each other to keep that will alive.  We’ve had to fight off the doubters.  We’ve had to fight off the leeches.   We’ve had to fight off our family, friends, & lovers.  We’ve had to fight off the bulls**t deals.  We’ve had to fight off the so-called “experts” and “professionals.”  We’ve had to fight off tradition and convention. We’ve had to fight off the hunger, the debt, the recession.  We’ve had to fight the time.  We’ve had to fight these times.  And “for what?”, you may ask.  We’ve been fighting for YOU! The New Artists, the New Musicians, the New Writers, the New Designers, the New Personalities, the New New York, and the New World.

Everything we do over here at GFCnewyork is inspired by YOU.  Our legacy will be defined by what we all do today as individuals, as a society, and as a Culture…Today is Tomorrow.

    Mickey you’re a beast. Keep doin big things and stayin true to the game. Enough of the ringtone rapper with watered down lyrics and pauses after all of his punch lines. Guys like you, Talib, Murs, Lupe and others don’t get enough credit because you’re not put on the radio as much, but any true hip hop fan can and does appreciate the work you put in, in your music and this site. True hip hop can’t be heard on the radio anymore, but lets hope that guys like you can help revive the game and take it back to the glory days revolved around great lyrics

    GFC you already know what it is. Keep fighting because the truth is once you lose the drive to fight, its all over.

    Please continue to be inspirational to the rest of us.
