Welcome to...The Corner

The Corner- To most a corner is an intersection where two separate streets come head to head but for others the corner is much more than just a point on a city grid. The corner is more than just the residence of rusted street signs that serve as neighborhood flags. To a select few, the corner is the place where scarface inspired, ghetto fortunes are made, the corner is where dice games are played and where an open fire hydrant provides more comfort than the shade.

The corner isn’t ‘a place”, instead it is “The Place”. Where you stood at the bus stop, where countless people got popped, and where your man got knocked. The Corner is the soap box of the hood, an elevated platform where ghetto sage’s belt god’s end time prophecy, where crack was responsible for countless atrocities, and where for a few dollars any man can get some illegal debauchery. The Corner is where conversations are debated, where your favorite rapper’s favorite rapper gets hated and where Eye Candy gets mentally dated.

The Corner is what you make of it, it is shapeless, formless and void of any confines. It is where almost anything goes, where a seed of knowledge is sowed and new found wisdom grows. The Corner is what you make of it-it is reflective of its members as a whole. You act ignorant-the corner acts ignorant back, if you got something to say you better back it with facts, because if you don’t your thread will get derailed like a train on broken tracks.

The Corner is our thing, La Costra Nostra, something we brought about not for personal gain, fortune or fame…but to help people understand the hip hop game. Where respect isn’t given, it’s earned because if you step out of line you’ll lose your turn, eternally ethered and placed in an E-Urn. Welcome to The Corner…Where impossible is nothing and nothing is impossible. Enjoy…The Corner.

Powerful message.

hmmm, yeah i don't know...we definitely should use it somewhere cuz its well written and packed with gems....it just makes more sense to to be on the homepage somehow...

Another thing I was thinking...was combining LOW's sticky to members and moderators (about how to do different thing) into the "there's rules to this shit, i worte me a manual" announcement......as a means of consolidating some of the stickies...

just a thought

That wold make sense to combine the two

Interesting

chea!
