Question

(With all due respect to Justo - Rest in Peace Brother - who I met in 1994 and always respected...)

How in the hell is there a "Mixtape Awards" and Rapid Ric is not nominated in one category?

Dude has been putting it down hard for the past few years but this year in particular has taken it to the next level. Chalie Boy tape, Magno tape, All Flows, etc... Not a dud in the bunch.

Dude actually mixes unlike a good 30% of the folks who have been nominated. Dude gets exclusives that really are exclusives, not just record company leaks.

Everything he does is real and he is killin' it right now. Spinning overseas. DJing for Chamillionaire, Slim Thug and Devin the Dude to name a few. His crew, the Whut it Dew Family are HANDS DOWN the best MC's in the south. Hand's down.

Yet and still dude ain't nominated for nothin'.

And there's only four people in the "Screwed and Chopped" category. Watts, OG Ron C, Ryno and Slice. Now I cut for all four of them. But how you gonna not have DJ-D in there? Street Pharmacy? Big Chance? Come on now man. DJ-D just did the whole Rap-A-Lot catalog it seems AND HE ACTUALLY MIXES!

He's not pushing buttons on a computer.

Man, I honestly don't care about awards show, but duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuudes are you insane? I think a special category needs to be created or maybe just a lil acknowledgement needs to be given to Rapid Ric, a young brother who is truly changing the game.
