the artist is Souilja Boy with Blowing me Kisses. I think he deserves five mikes because he has made a song that is original and it is a great song to heari also like the fact that the odds are against him but he keeps on pushing.

the artist is Diddy with Hello Good Morning(Remix). I think this song deserves five mics because diddy been rapping since Notorious B.I.G was rapping and i think that the song is really good.

The artist was Soulja Boy Blowing me kisses. Ido not think he deserve 5 mics becuase to me he is a fake. I dont think he is a good influence to our community at all. I also think he cant rap.
