| K-Otix have never really gotten their props, despite dropping bangers for the last decade. There's a number of explanations floating around...their hometown (Houston) and their record company (Bronx Science) being a couple of the better ones. When the LP, "Universal" finally dropped in '01, it included most of the joints that had been released via twelves to that point, with the exception of this record: K-Otix "Do You Wanna Be an MC?" (1998)  Download links - Sharebee.com, the one and only online file hosting distribution service. K-Otix have never really gotten their props, despite dropping bangers for the last decade.

"Do You Wanna Be an MC?" was the first K-Otix record I was up on (having missed "Spontaneity"), and was one of the stronger indie records in a year of strong indie records. Like most K-Otix singles, shit is thorough from the production to the verses on to the chorus (in this case, a sampled Common line from "The Bizness"). The track here doesn't contain the energy that typifies some of their other bangers, but mirrors the reflective nature of the delivery, probably the pessimistic version of J-Live's "Hush the Crowd": It ain't where you're from, or where you're at It's about who you know and who did your track So take a step back - to see what you made 'cause who's the last one to get paid? The irony I guess is how K-Otix got jerked by their label despite shit like this years earlier. Oh, BTW, if you missed their Katrina response cut, "George Bush Don't Like Black People" in '05, it belongs in a playlist somewhere. This record includes vocal and instrumental, as well as the b-side "7 MC's Pt. II" (vocal, instrumental, remix

| Topic Creator i so agree. I hate to see these underrated rappers being bumped down to low level. Man i so hate Mainstream Era. Lil'Wayne, Lil'Jon Soulja Boy all those Wack rappers got to go! (No offense to any fans if there are any) |
