| October 13, 2004 - Why? (Skillz Is Bored) | Why do 3% of Americans control the wealth,
while 95% can't afford to pay for health?
Why do we allow big business to bully the courts,
and why do we allow old people to wear black socks with shorts?
Why do we entrust our health to doctors that smoke,
and why are taxes so high yet the Government's broke?
Why did we blame what we did on Saddam,
and why are you a terrorist for reading the Qu'ran?
Why are we hellbent on starting world war part three,
and why vote Republican instead of an independant party?
Why we do we still let grown men wear pink,
and why is it against the rules for politicians to think?
Why can't Senators actually read the bills they pass,
we took over Iraq, so why's it still so expensive for gas?
Why has America become a totalitarian state,
and why do they air the Daily Show so late?
Why do we care so little about the Microsoft monopoly,
and why won't your song sell unless Clear Channel buys a copy?
Why do music critics consider Nelly Hip-Hop,
and why has it taken so long for a Rakim album to drop?
Why does the media let all the good stories get buried,
and why does it matter if two gay people get married?
Why is more than half the population obese,
and why am I forced to leave this rhyme incomplete?
Why? |

| September 14, 2004 - Find Me At The Club | To follow-up from yesterday's announcement about a possible return from retirement, the proclamation is confirmed. This friday, September 17th, I will be spinning at The Roca Room (inside The Rox) from 11pm to who knows when. There is no cover until 11pm and it's only $5 after that. Peep the link to the flyer below for more information. My man D-Kompose will be on the mic backing up the breaks and making shit live. If you're in SD, drop by and say what's up.

| September 13, 2004 - Out Of Retirement? | | It may be time to clean off the dust and take the covers off the turntables once again. The site has been dormant for way too long and there might be some changes coming down the pipe. Look for a possible announcement later this week. |

| April 21, 2004 - Online Store Back Online | | After a long delay (and we're sorry about that), the MistaSkillz.com online store is back online and accepting new orders. All orders concluded via email during the outage have been processed and shipped. Get to ordering. |
|
|
| April 19, 2004 - Online Store Update | | The MistaSkillz.com Online Store should be back online before the end of this week. We request that you hold off placing any orders until that time since it makes our lives easier. However, if you just cannot wait until that time, you can send an email to our Sales Team and they can process your order. Hit up orders@mistaskillz.com. |
|
|
| April 13, 2004 - Online Store Is Offline | | Just wanted to drop a quick word that the Online Store will be offline for a few days pending some changes and restructuring. Manual orders can still placed via email to orders@mistaskillz.com and instructions will be sent back to you on how to proceed. |

| March 29, 2004 - Lil Flip REMIX Posted | By popular demand, I have put online a snippet from the Lil Flip - Game Over REMIX off the Rise of the Empire Volume Four mixtape. As with all the downloadable samples, it has been reduced in quality to make for faster downloading and an audio sample plays at random intervals during the track. The talking does not appear on the purchased CD and all retail copies are mastered for high quality sound.

| March 24, 2004 - MistaSkillz.com Relaunched! | | The change was long overdue but well worth it. So many things have been modified/upgraded that I won't even try to name them all. The biggest feature of the relaunch is our upgraded Online Store. PayPal is gone and we're now processing both credit card and online check orders. Canada/international orders welcome. More mixtapes are on their way so be sure to stick around for new hot shit coming soon. Drop a shout on the new shout board or peep the new track samples posted for Rise of the Empire Volume 4. THEN GO BUY THAT SHIT! |
