SUCKS. Didn’t think it was true when I first heard, it happened so suddenly. FatBeats is legendary and gave everyone something they were never able to get anywhere else…we can’t lose gems like that! Their in-stores were the shit because you really got to interact with everyone there on a real level…and these virtual ustream sessions and shows just don’t compare. Good hip hop outlets are pretty nonexistent now–how do we revive them? Is it as simple as buying some vinyl or a couple CDs?
But on the bright side, they’re giving everyone an opportunity to perform there one last time so holler @ them if you do that kind of thing.

His name itself is even significant.
Baatin: Literally, this means “concealed.” In practice, this refers to the idea that the real sense of the Holy Scripture is hidden beneath the literal meaning of the words. It is only accessible to those who are adept at reasoning and thinking. A person who devotes himself to studying such hidden meanings can be called a batini.
