Everyone gets to like what they like and I respect the opinions of the people who don’t like one or both.Įdit: people think old poets only wrote lovely verses about war and love. Even the poets of the past had beef with each other so I feel like this is just the modern version of poets bashing each other.as they have since the first rhyme. I like both! Rap in all forms is just modern poetry. the end of Kane's verse there shows a great example of what Kane did different from everyone else before him (multiple rhymes within a single line), which Em then took and did entire songs with. For those who don't know a world before Eminem. All four were good, but Kool G and Kane just fucking KILLED it here. Just something really catchy about it, and the synth line, IMO.Īnd one more. The second one there is actually not representative of that group's music overall, but I personally liked that track more than the rest of their stuff. I need more variety than that.ĮDIT: While I'm at it, for fun. I love both, but I can't take more than maybe 4 songs in a row and I start getting a headache. I don't know how the fuck people can listen to 7 HOURS of that same fucking pattern. It would also be another thing to have a verse - or part of a verse - use that pattern, but for god's sake SWITCH IT UP for a damn minute. You know, if it was one song or two that used it all the way through that would be one thing. I'm probably about the same age (FB but not KB - KMD maybe), and the thing that annoys me even more than mumble rappers is the over-excessive use of the Scotch Snap in hip hop for the last 10 years. Oh, if the coke machine wins the highest bid, they just No-Sale or negotiate. So they want to sell that car/item, it just has to make enough.) The seller can “No Sale” the car and re-run it later or somewhere else too (that happens often but they have to pay to transport it to the auction, pay the auction to run it, and there are other fees. You might burn a bridge but it part of the fun.Īlso, once they call you to the podium to negotiate, you are no longer bidding so you are not obligated for your last bid. You can say, “$10,000, and see if they’ll take it or got to $10,200”. You don’t want to shaft the sellers but don’t roll over for them either. If it’s worth it to you, do the guy a favor and they normally repay it later. Lots of times the auctioneer will call you to the podium and say something like “Hey man, this guy has $10,500 in it, can you do that”. He’ll run you up to the floor (or higher depending your relationship with them). If he senses you want the car/item and the opposing bidder stops bidding, he can pretend to be the opposition or a new imaginary bidder. If there’s a lot of bidding going on, he doesn’t need to run you against the coke machine. So the auctioneer sighs and says, “Ok, here we go” and drops the bidding down to $8,000.
They rarely start where the auctioneer is fishing (there are tricks though). The auction might start fishing for bids around $11,000. Let’s say the seller has his “floor” (lowest price he’ll take) at $10,000. The auctioneer represents the guy selling the car. Oh, and with the popularity of internet bidding, its not a coke machine anymore, but Anon via internet that they bid the newbies against. Public auctions are a sttaight up shit show, i do not reccomend those.
Also good sellers will often be up on the block with the auctioneer giving guidance to the auctioneer on what they want done, so if the coke machine act is being pulled, its probably not a surprise to the seller.ĭealer only auctions are relatively professional, though still plenty of stupidity and tons of corruption. There is also a fair amount of politics between the dealers, friends wont bid on cars that eachother want to avoid driving up the price. But aside from all that, after a "no-sale", the seller would probably approach you "off the block" (on the side) to make a deal.Īt a dealer only car auction its typically the same people there week after week, and its pretty easy to spot the newbie vs the veteran just based on body language alone. And this is also where the skill of the auctioneer is, knowing who to push and how far. But its obviously way more complicated then that. Typically they'll run the car again at no fee if it was an auctioneer fuck up.
