Known to his family and friends as Nick Napier, Headcase is a throwback to when music was made respectably by artists who put heart and soul into their craft. In addition to updates on his new music, Headcase will occasionally write about other subjects, including the current music scene, the news, politics, and various different themes.</description><title>The Ramblings of a Madman</title><generator>Tumblr (3.0; @mcheadcase)</generator><link>http://mcheadcase.tumblr.com/</link><item><title>The two greatest songwriters of all time.

&lt;p&gt;I sometimes get sad when I listen to Eyedea. Why did someone so talented have to be taken away? Idk man, but something I’ll never get to see is him live, and that’s heartbreaking to say the least.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Here are a few upcoming releases that I am proud to present to the world this year. Each of these will feature one producer which is different from anything I’ve done before. Here’s a quick breakdown of each project and the tentative release date. &lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

It originally debuted on a mixtape, “&lt;strong&gt;Studio Leaks &amp; Nathan Crossley Present: The People’s Champs Vol. 2.&lt;/strong&gt;” But even before its debut, the plan was for it to be on my album.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The track features guest verses from &lt;strong&gt;Ghost Dog&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Tuscon&lt;/strong&gt;,two emcees from Raleigh, NC who are members of the collective known as &lt;strong&gt;The Tribe of the 1100 Hunters&lt;/strong&gt; (or at least Tuscon is; I think Ghost might have left the group recently). As the story goes, Ghost and Tu recorded their verses in real-time while teaching the youth about Hip-Hop in a class at the Wade Edwards Learning Lab. I wasn’t present when they did, but I wish I was. The production is handled by &lt;strong&gt;Vherbal&lt;/strong&gt;, of the &lt;strong&gt;Anno Domini Beats&lt;/strong&gt; crew. This is one of the three tracks he produced for my album.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As most Hip-Hop fans could probably tell, the title is inspired by &lt;strong&gt;KRS-One&lt;/strong&gt; album “&lt;strong&gt;Return of the Boom Bap&lt;/strong&gt;.” The track is your basic battle/braggadocio song, an ‘attack the wack people who are ruining Hip-Hop’ theme. And its not just baseless, we focus on certain types of people too: I diss emcees who try to awkwardly force multisyllabic words into their rhymes (“&lt;em&gt;Trying to hard to spit multis, that’s what I’m annoyed with / it’s like rape: when you force it, you’re the only one who enjoys it&lt;/em&gt;”) while Tuscon has a few choice words for the unoriginal producers (“&lt;em&gt;Give me some Premo, some Pete, or some Marley / I’m hardly in awe of these limited beatmakers since ‘The Symphony’ / lyrical epiphanies, producers, you be killing me / cut out that R&amp;B baby-making samples, you’re making me nauseous&lt;/em&gt;”).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The song has already gotten some props; it was featured on GetDownSon.com, run by Adam “AWOL” Ardente. I’ve thought about adding some DJ scratches in the spaces where the hook should be (cause there is no hook), but this is where the song stands as of now. Click the link above to hear it at my Soundcloud page, and let me know what you think!&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mcheadcase.tumblr.com/post/46981880194</link><guid>http://mcheadcase.tumblr.com/post/46981880194</guid><pubDate>Tue, 02 Apr 2013 20:55:42 -0400</pubDate><category>Headcase</category><category>Ghost Dog</category><category>Tuscon</category><category>1100 Hunters</category><category>Hip-Hop</category><category>North Carolina</category><category>North Carolina Hip-Hop</category><category>NC Hip-Hop</category><category>NC</category><category>Boom Bap</category><category>Vherbal</category><category>Anno Domini Beats</category><category>Self Portrait</category><category>MC Headcase</category></item><item><title>supastition:
