Code Of The Street 

Scratch my back & I'll scratch yours sounds so simple when you say it out loud to a friend. Yet, it seems harder to actually do than it really is.
Hip Hop is a way of life, some of the same rules apply to the Rap Game just as they do with your everyday needs & wants.
Support is like Respect - In order to get it you have to give it. (Usually first in most cases) When I talk about Truth I'm speaking of Sincerity & Integrity. 
I've always been a man of my word. If I say I'm going to do something I do it because I've made a personal commitment to someone or something, but most importantly to myself. I have been involved with the St.Louis Local Music Game for over 15 years which is why you might hear me refer to myself as A "St.Louis Legend" 
My Skills rang anywhere from Street Team Promotions, Event Planning, Radio Personality & Recording/
Performing Artist.
I'm out & about all the time checking out what's hot & what's not. Everything is posted online now a days, so it's hard to be out the loop. (No Pun) 
Allow me to keep this short, sweet & simple.
If "I" ask/invite a artist or individual to my Show/Event & they actually show up I feel an automatic obligation to go to one of their next Shows/Event. (with invite & notice)
That's The Code Of The Streets....... Nothing more, nothing less. Its  very simple you support somebody in hopes that they return the favor, vice versa. 
Its called "Building Relationships" you should try it. The trick is to use this tactic with people other than just artist, rappers & producers.
This is also called "Building A Fanbase 101" I'm not going to stoop so low as to call names for the sake of starting beef right before my album drops on November 26th.
However, I've been to Hella Dj's, rap cats/groups ect. shows/events over the last 3 or 4 years & they still M.I.A. at a T.E.A.M. NiTRO Party 
One monkey don't stop the show, but the circus will go on. Rap Music will never be the same.
