"Holding down the nations capital, DL shows the underground that hip hop is alive in full force. Buy this album , and show support and universial love for the artists that do it for the love, no fabrications. I chilled with 9planets a couple times b4 this album was released, Hitting up Babylon/on tap , this cats are holding it down, decent peps"

"This rapper is so underated its sickening, He has put hard work into this album and none of you have listened to it because you neglect him as a canadian rapper. spit forever II could have easily been the song of the year, You all must listen to this song as this is the type of calibre this rapper has been producing his music at. They have stopped making his albums? Why ? because people like us choose to download this one song, Hes probably swiping groceries right now because of us, listen to the songthjank you"

"NOW, ITS TOO BAD NOT TOO MANY PEOPLE DONT LIKE RAP THAT DOESNT PARTICULARLY HAVE THE N-WORD IN EVERY SECOND PHRASE, OR RAPPIN ABOUT CARS AND MONEY, BUT FOR THOSE WHO ARE SICK OF THAT CRAP THAN BUY THIS, DOWNLOAD THIS OR WHATEVER-JUST LISTEN TO IT. THIS IS PURE UNDERGROUND HIP-HOP (CANADIAN AS WELL) AT ITS FINEST. FAVORITE SONGS ARE "AUDIO COKE", "DREAMS ARE MADE OF", "RUGGED RAW", AND "SPIT FOREVER".. AND MAY I ALSO MENTION IF U ARE DOWN WITH THE UNDERGROUND CANADIAN HIP-HOP SCENE PLEASE DONT FORGET ABOUT MC'S SUCH AS "CLASSIFIED", "DAN-E-O", "CHECKMATE" AND "bRASMUNK" TO NAME A FEW."
