This is an article from the July 1998 issue of Transworld. I was going to wait until the summer to post it in honor of its ten year anniversary, but granted that filming has been minimal, due to evident insanity in recent weather patterns, I figure this may be an appropriate time to post it. All your favorites are included: Harold, Quim, Rodney, Andre, etc. Even CMF favorite, Chris Keefe. Thanks to Jimmy Marketti for all of the scans.

wheres dave thomas?

Gangsta charlie agrees with mr.dave. But then again a lot of these out of towners give new ideas and life to the scene. Perfect example would be Billy Rohan. He’s from florida and yet he’s doing good for the scene here.
Gangsta charlie also loves:
Pizza
Fast cars
Pants
Money
Women

the thing that sucks about new york is that not that many kids are doing anything cool because they aren’t cool and don’t know anything about anything cool

Dude, Lupe Fiasco put out an album called “The Cool,” you should cop it, such a definitive guide on what’s cool. I’m pretty sure your criticism won’t really hold any weight once that certified classic had some time to marinate.
