Not everything is cool all the time.
This tour shit we are GOING IN

Sleeping in a mini van GOING IN
showering at truck stops GOING IN
Like leaving with $500 gas money GOING IN

I try not to ask people for help because I like the satisfaction of knowing I got up off my ass & made something happen for myself
So here we go…..
USM Fans, Friends & Fam WE NEED YOUR HELP

you feel em enough buy em it goes straight in the gas tank
& we need that
2. USM w/ KILLAH PRIEST! WEDNESDAY APRIL 21st
if you were out here for halloween than you already know
we know it’s a wednesday and that sucks and $10 is steep for our people and that sucks but…..
THIS WILL BE OUR LAST SHOW IN DETROIT before we leave
if you come out you will be helping us in a MAJOR way
send us off in style PLEASE
if none of the above suits your fancy
Suggest our fanpage on Facebook
Share our Website
give our FREE DOWNLOADS to your friends
if you know people in any of the areas that we are traveling HIT THEM UP!… tell them to come on out & rock wit us!
Cause part of the REAL is yeah we do have our promo & shit tight….
but we are only so many & limited
Take me for example other than doing this USM stuff I bust my balls in a kitchen making food 40 hours a week… every week
now Im not crying about it….. Im proud to work hard but I (along with the rest of my crew) have the same 24 hours in a day you do
& can only do SO MUCH
YOU GUYS can help us put this thing over the top
To anybody who has ever came to one of our shows, paid cover, bought a t-shirt, bought a CD, took a flyer from my goofy ass, commented on a song on facebook, put up a youtube video of us doing the damn thang…WE APPRECIATE THAT SHIT….more than you will ever know
real heads we LOVE you…you are the reason we LIVE
You have all helped get us to this point
LET’S PUT IT OVER THE TOP!
if not for us than the D
if not for us than for HIP HOP period
Im not gonna front like alot of other cats round these parts
even though i have PRIDE I will not let that silly pride be a detriment to my crew
IM ASKING FOR HELP
The Subject Line pretty much says it all but here are some added reasons
1) it’s for a good cause with all proceeds going to Gleaners
2) there’s an eclectic line up so a little something for everybody
3) i’ll be drinking (you might think this is just fun for me, but if you think that you haven’t seen me drink)
4) The Situation is rumored to be there (i know it’s your guilty pleasure too)
5) 2040 will be holding me down on the 1’s and 2’s
6) I’ll be giving away free CD’s and shirts
to sum up it will be a good time for a good cause so get involved.
more on Cleaners Benefit Show 2.0
On Saturday, January 16th, 8 super rad local bands get together at The Belmont in Hamtramck, to raise money for Gleaners Community Food Bank, the United States 3rd largest food bank. Now, more than ever, Gleaners needs the helping hand of it’s community to ensure children and their families have food to eat this winter. Every dollar donated to Gleaners is equivalent to 3 meals, so just by coming to the show you are providing 18 meals for Metro Detroiters!
In March ’08, this same benefit raised $1300 for hungry Metro Detroiters. And we are hoping, with the sponsorship of Russell Street
Deli, to raise more the second time around!
