Because We Love Getting Threatening Emails from Conceit

 Posted by Thuggy

We’ll just go ahead and post more shit about Topr.

The Amoeba Records blog has a dope interview up with Topski about being a Frisco rapping vet. click here to peep.

Topr writes:

 When I tried to book this show at Amoeba records the women in
charge, although very polite, was basically not having it. It seems
the higher ups want to abolish in-stores from local / underground
groups all together. Why you ask? Well, various reasons were sited but
it all boils down to the same bullshit we have been hearing all
decade: DOWNLOADING. People come to see the shows for free, hear what
songs they like and go home and download them all from Itunes. As
Conceit will co-sign, I gave them an earful of reasons why its they’re
responsibility to book in stores with local acts. I mean, they’re
fucking AMOEBA RECORDS for Christ sake, if they don’t support local
indie groups who will. If it wasn’t for Louis (the hip hop buyer)
going to bat for me, the show would not have happened. Thats why I
need everyone to come show support and cop the album if you haven’t
already. Send a few bulletins out. Because honestly, a lot is on the
line with this show and its not just TOPR or Gurp City. If this show
does not succeed it may very well be the LAST UNDERGROUND IN STORE AT
AMOEBA RECORDS SF. No joke, I pitched them a good line and now its all
riding on this show. Louis’s ass is on the line, the girl who booked
its ass is on the line, my ass is on the line and every music fan in
the bays ass is on the line as well. So COME THROUGH!!!!!!! We’ll
have beers after. Thanks. -Lord Topr

and if you have nothing better to do after Toprs free show, I guess you could roll on out to Poleng and watch Conceit play.
