[Lickin Gs]

---

Yep the hook is very catchy..... although they oughta correct the grammar.. nd the other parts of the song... yechhhhh!!

Oh and have you heard their night stand remix Cmon, instead of making a song better they wrecked it... I got 3 words to describe this... "Oh My Gawd"

..please don't pressume things.. read & understand b4 posting ur reply. that way, we'd all be at peace here.

in my own opinion...it's a song that was created maybe a year or two years ago.. & til now, dice&k9 are "living" off it. i think the song is waay too overrated for it's class. first time i heard it, i was pretty impressed that they included japanese in it, but then after listenin 2 the hook again.. wrong grammar & after seein the lyric sheet, wrong spelling. and the lyrics in general... my little brother can even write better verses if he had to. im a music lover & and bein a producer i know (but am not perfect) what good lyrics & beats sound like.

peace out.

I dont think somebody is out here to \\\"destroy\\\" anyone. I am happy that Dice&K9 made it big, is making it big or will make it big. What we have here (I hope) is a healthy place for a healthy discussion. Please no dissing on the person who made posts. If you have nothing mature to say then dont say it, it will only end up delete

Anyway, I am now seeing the picture that puti is trying to draw or the things that he wants us to think. I was able to listen to UK Lily\\\'s (spelling check pls) Streets of Empty (im not sure if it is correct) and heck, you could compare.

I am a proud Cebuano and I am proud of Dice&K9 but if they really want to be successful, they need to battle through all the criticisms they could get, most especially if it comes from a Cebuano. Now for all their supporters, dont be too hasty in calling \\\"stupid\\\" or \\\"ignorant\\\" those people who do not share your views. We all have our own \\\"truths.\\\" If you know something and can prove it then show us.

You have a tone of sarcasm in your reply. As JDM111 mentioned, read your previous post as to why I laid out my resume for you.

If you respected my opinion, you would have had posted with courtesy, and respect towards me and other members on this topic.

...and you’d be glad to hear from me even just a little appreciation for this band?

First of all, I don’t need to please anyone, especially you. Secondly, being an artist myself, I despise people who do not know how to humble themselves. I don’t have to say anything nice about it, cause I honestly don’t like it.

I do not conform to the conventions of a society, and never will. I choose to lead than follow, and help people rather than be helped.

Food for thought:

I went to Vudu last weekend, and the track was played by a guest dj, and left it to play for a while. Most people turned to the dj, and mellowed down from hip hopping… Now why did the spirit of the crowd die down when the track was played?

[puti]

Have you heard other local artist’s compositions? They're really good, and in my opinion will compete nationally, even globally. Now where's the crab mentality in that?

[huslabiatch]

hollup..hollup right there... im getting confused... I'm not siding on any1 here... I'm juz telling you guys whut my side is.. I'm not beeing biased or sumthin coz I know Dice & K9 personally & that they're my friends like way back years ago when I they were still starting out..
just wanted to clear this thing out .. I know for a fact Hi-c sang ITSUMO and not some other girl whutsoever..
I aint close minded ... and if you're saying they be fake and all stealing those lyrics and beats well go ahead.. I know you all have your sources too just like mine... but all I can say is I'm proud of them for reaching this far... I knew them before they became popular and I've seen them grown into mature individuals... as of now I need to ask them about this just to make sure adn clarify things..
I just dont get it why you guys say I'm just too clouded by just being cebuano and trying promote cebuano music... uhhmm we still dont know if this is true or not right? So im just expressing whut I felt was RIGHT... I do support other local artists... I know alot of em and I salute em too ... I support Dice & K9 bcoz I know they made their own songs... its true that not all of their beats are originally from em but fo sho they contributed sumthin out of their own time & sweat... and you guys were saying if u think ur mUSIC aint original u can show us a copy or sumthin? well give Dice & K9 that too... they can show you their own ORIGINAL MUSIC ... we all need to be fair here you know...
You guys were discussin bout how lame their lyrics were.. well yes it is kinda lame and I wasnt impressed... the beat is dope tho.. simple yet laid back... I'm no itsumo fan but I respect the artists... you get me? You should all listen to their songs first before judging em completely... I'm not gona deny that I love their old style... back when they werent a hit yet... underground foreal... lyrics are much more stressed and most of it have sense... I'm always a supporter for local artists and I want to let other people know that Cebuanos/Cebuanas have talents too...
SUm1 quoted here this .. "They are rockstars posing as rappers. " I cant say they are posing as rappers .. its just that they dont dress up as "hip-hop" I mean being hiphop is not bout whut you wear or sumthin... you guys should chek out those underground hiphopheadz from the US ... they dont wear those baggy pants and big clothes with the bling2x and shit... hiphop is independence.. it is you, me , him, her and us. hiphop is your heart, blood and soul ... its the perfect relationship... it aint visible to the eyes but needed to supplement life more than the reason for existence... that is your reason of being.. hiphop is a voice ... yall wanted to be heard right? so learn to listen and visualize...
understand and stimulate :P

check this out.. http://www.mastaplann.com >> go to the guestbook. read on..enjoy!

yup! I've read this one already... me and my other friends were actually discussin this in our channel days ago... A friend of mine went thru alota criticisms from people all over the world coz of her groups music.. everywhere we go there will be one like this... atleast you know sum people are really listening and actually taking time to comment on the artist...

peace it!

puti: post the lyrics the original song of sashi yuichiro or whoever it was.
and maybe you could throw in her profile. that might just settle the score.

i agree of the opinions telling the that track could do better.

it could do better.

but can you blame them? i mean they are only starting out.

did you not fall once or twice when you first rode a bike?

if they really want to be successful, they wouldn't settle on just one track.

we will hear more from them. it may again be a hit. on the other hand, it might not.

bottom line, itsumo hit the airwaves big time.

a hit is a hit no matter how you criticize it.

remeber asereje and macarena? lame tracks but big hits.

again, i like the song but (again) the group could've done better to make it a better.

but then again, it wouldn't be itsumo anymore if it was a "better" song, right?

[JDM111]

...hahahaha

huslabiatch: we're talkin about itsumo here, not dice&k9 as a whole. but thanx 4 the 411 thou.

dierdre:
+ "but can you blame them? i mean they are only starting out. " - ...i believe they've been around for quite some time, as Dice mentioned - they've been in the biz 4 10years?
+ "remeber asereje and macarena? lame tracks but big hits. " - so ur classifyin itsumo as one of these tracks?..haha
+ "but then again, it wouldn't be itsumo anymore if it was a "better" song, right?" - haha i dunno what ur point is but, yea.

...and to those people "defending" the track &/ the artists.. u know what i think? i think it's better dice&k9 do that coz it'll be more...'legit'. i'm not sayin ur wrong thou.

one luv..respect...me & my 50cents. peace out.

my posts are my opinion and are not against anyone in this forum. my posts are NEVER DIRECTED TO ANYONE, its just that, some people here are reacting to it as if it were for 'em. i dont belittle other members, or resort to name calling because i respect them. and to make things clear, one doesnt have to be like PUTI to be respected. i dont know why you thought that way. but again, i respect your opinion.
