i wish there was a way that you could speak honestly on this board without getting flamed. I've seen him perform like 3 times, once in sac, once in davis and once in petaluma, and every time, i thought he was mediocre at best. He is not good live. I don't care if Cognito is the first rapper to perform in outer-fucking space, he still sucks live which means i'll never buy a record. If that's not real enough, then go see him for yourself.
