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 has made a name for himself on the internet by releasing a countless amount of songs for free download, and solid independently released albums, his latest cd “Hiphopcrisy” was a solid album that I’d recommend it to any hip hop fan, it can be purchased through him on his myspace page. He has been a featured artist of the month on popular website hiphopgame.com, and had songs on video games “NBA Ballers: Phenom” and “Narc”.  I’ve always been a fan of his music, he spits some real life music with solid lyrics, a strong voice, and never holds back on his emotions.

Soleternity has been producing beats for as long as I can remember, and if you’re an emcee who has looked for beats in the past few years on mp3.com or soundclick, there’s a good chance you’ve heard the name before. He has produced beats that have been used by Young Buck, Joe Budden, Lil Scrappy, Bone Crusher, and more, and the list is constantly growing. This guy is definitely making some moves in the industry,  and he ‘s only 22 years old. Whether it’s producing, rapping, promoting, doing music videos, or working on his webisode online show, he stays grinding in the music industry. He just released an album with his partner in rhyme Big Mountain, they go by the name of Brotherly Love, and the album is titled “The Prequel”.
