For those of you that haven’t heard of Grind Time, or didn’t see our previous post on them, it’s The World’s #1 Rap Battle League started by emcee’s for emcee’s. I’ve been a huge fan of Grind Time, and a lot of the rappers involved for as long as I’ve known about the league, and certain battlers based on performances prior to the league’s formation. When I first heard about Battle Of LA 3, I knew I had to be there, and I waited impatiently for a few months till that day finally came. The event, better known as “BOLA 3” was held on New Years Eve at The Airliner, in Los Angeles, and I couldn’t think of a better way for me to have brought in 2010 than being at this event. It was my first time at a Grind Time event, and it was easily one of the funnest nights of my life, a jam packed night of entertainment from start to finish! Grind Time has single-handedly taken the battle scene to new heights, and I look forward to another big year from them. Much love to @LushOne, and everyone else involved in making this event happen! I hope they hold more events in Los Angeles, cause I will definitely be there every time!

One of the most humble, nicest, genuine people you could ever come across recently passed away on Jan 23rd, 2010. He was also a rapper, a very talented one at that, and he was as passionate about making music as a person could be. His name is Brandon “Point Game” Burris.

Although a lot of people that knew him online, never met him in person, he still was able to touch a lot of our lives. He was known to give advice, and encouraging words to rappers trying to perfect their craft, and collabing with almost anyone interested in being on a song with him, no matter how much better of an artist he was than them. In his music he shared his deepest, and most personal thoughts, that helped you get an idea of who he was, and what he was going through in life, which is why a lot of us felt like we knew him.

I took the time to look through a bunch of old burned cd’s, and other files that I haven’t accessed in years, and was extremely happy when I came across a bunch of his old music, and the freestyle video I posted above. I uploaded the video, and as much music as I had of his to share with everyone that may never got a chance to hear some of it. This includes albums I purchased from him dating back to 2003 that I ripped to my computer, and uploaded. You can definitely say I’ve been a long time fan of Point Game, and this news was shocking, and sad to hear.

He will live on through his music.

I uploaded everything I had of his that I could find, but his catalogue goes even deeper than this, from various collab tracks, battle tracks, remixes, and songs I just don’t have of his.

Point Game Music Collection Directory 2003-2008

Point Game – Official EP (2003)
Point Game – Not Him LP
Point Game – 05 Gone Ride Mixtape
Point Game – The Game Gets Deeper Album (2005) (Zshare)
Point Game – No Privacy EP (2007) (Zshare)
Point Game – HipHopCrisy (2008) (Zshare)
Instant Legend & Point Game – Conceited Humility 2.0 (ReverbNation)

You can see on the links below, that he touched a lot of lives on his short time here on earth, it’s rare to come across a person like him, and it’s sad that he passed. If he knew this many people cared about him, and enjoyed his music while he was here, maybe things could have been different, and he could have overcome his hardships. A few emcee’s from the various message boards he posted at, have recorded Song Tribute’s to him as well, along with t-shirts being printed up, and started a fundraiser to buy musical instruments for the high school he went to, because he wanted to do that while he was living.

While digging through my old files I also found an aim convo I had with him in around 2005, that I saved for some reason, and it just reminded me how humble he was, and always wishing the best for everyone.

pointgamerap: naw, but for real fam
pointgamerap: i wish you the best
pointgamerap: in ya dreams
pointgamerap: may not seem like a lot
pointgamerap: comin from me
slimAGENT: thanks man, i appreciate it
pointgamerap: but if thats what you wanna do
pointgamerap: go for it man
pointgamerap: you outta see people when i say “im a rapper ”

A direct quote from a post he made on December 12th, 09 describes how much he loved music.

The way making hip hop makes me feel is to real to stop whether or not guap’s copped till my pocket knots. To fun as well. God blessed me with a talent and I’d be shorting myself and him if i didn’t use it. I love playing piano just as much. Ill never be a famous pianist. I’ll never even be good enough to play it live, but that won’t stop me from not sleeping someday’s between jobs just to hear the melodic sounds of sweetness. Music’s to big a part of me to ever not do. ill be the soloist one day maybe, homeless on the streets, but ill have a notebook, pen, and an instrument. – Point Game

REST IN PEACE BRANDON “POINT GAME” BURRIS
(10-30-82 to 1-23-10)

If you don’t know what Grind Time is (where the hell have you been?), they are a popular rap battle league, featuring some of the best battlers, and best battles that you will ever see in your life. They host events with a full line up of battles scheduled, in places like Oakland, Los Angeles, New York, Orlando, and other major cities around the USA. The battles are released online over time for FREE on Youtube & WorldStarHipHop, and the most historical event yet, “Battle Of The Bay 5” will be released on DVD in December after all the battles have come out. They are continuing to raise the bar with every major event they hold, and it’s been great to witness the growth since the early stages of Grind Time. I support this movement 100% and think it’s some of the best entertainment for every type of hip hop fan out there. Huge shoutout to everyone involved in keeping Grind Time going, from the battlers, the staff, the hosts, the judges, the camera guys, the video editors, photographers, graphic designers, sponsors, and more, for bringing us these great battles. And big ups to @LushOne for shouting out KarmaloopCodes.com, and holding down Grind Time West Coast in a major way!

Lyrics Posted On JoeBuddenTv Forums by SweetTisGod:

Wanna talk about bars, mine leave it be
Never needed an A&R, mine needed me
It’s 1 thing in this world I can’t stomachs a fake
You tryna stop what aint come with a brake
Some of yall made a mistake
Some of yall been deprived aint seen the skill
Just got the truck customized, got a meaner grill
Told baby just being real leave her
Get balls in your mouth, I spoke to her like Serena Will
Top back, top cats get a beating
Saying you’re the best, should stop it, it’s misleading
Cuz I might cock back to get even
It’s not a wet dream, you just getting shot at while you sleeping
Feeling like the game can’t be weaker
It’s why, homie rarely do the cameos and features
I’m good with my insanity and fevers
Cuz Pac looking from heaven saying “They aint understand me neither”
Wanna play it aint worth it
Maybe why I’m feeling like ‘Ye, you prolly won an award, but you aint deserve it
Circa 01 homeboy, he a vet
Leave em deep regrets like they Tila Tequila’s neck
You past your prime, I aint spit ether yet
You need a major, I just need an ethernet
Word on the street I made the OG’s be upset
Cuz I’m a student of the game, not a teacher’s pet

Here’s the music video for the song “Forever” which features Drake, Kanye West, Lil Wayne, and Eminem. Slaughterhouse makes an appearance during Eminem’s verse. Let’s hope they do some work together, or at least a Royce & Eminem track.

Picked up a few things for myself from Karmaloop, in the month of August, and figured I’d share them with the site. A pair of Skull Candy “Lowrider” Headphones, and the Dissizit! DxBones IT New Era Hat, and The Registered “D” Tee. Be sure to check out both of these great brands, and if you see anything you like, always remember to save with the codes at KarmaloopCodes.com

The OFFICIAL video for Slaughterhouse (Royce Da 5′9″, Crooked I, Joe Budden, Joell Ortiz) “The One” produced by DJ Khalil off of the self titled album dropping on August 11th! The single is available on Itunes now, and be sure to pick up the album when it drops to support real hip hop! They are currently on tour for the Rock The Bells hip hop festival, you can check the dates and locations on the site. SLAUGHTERHOUSEEEEEE!

Picked up these shirts above recently from Karmaloop. The one on the left is from Obey, and the shirt on the right is from Subconscious Threads featuring none other than Mike Tyson. Don’t forget you can save  save on any Karmaloop purchas with the codes @ KarmaloopCodes.com
