I've been neglecting this for a while now. I've been playing a lot of MW2 and Fall Out (yes, I love video games) and haven't touched my laptop for nearly a week. I left the house to go see Raekwon the 11th, but that's about it. Having a stomach flu and an XBox in the same house is dangerous. But tonight I'm going up to Chapel Hill to see Cage. He's, hands down, my favorite rapper. Reminiscent of El-P, his lyrics focus on drug addiction, his violent childhood, and depression. OMFG IT FEELS LIKE HE'S TALKING ABOUT MY LIFEEEEE! I'm about to take a nap.
Per Wiki: "Palko was born in Würzburg, Germany to American parents. His father, Bill Murray, was stationed on a West German military base as a member of the military police.[1] Palko lived there until the age of four when Murray was dishonorably discharged for selling and using heroin, and the family was sent back to the United States where they lived in Middletown, New York. Murray would often force Palko to pull homemade tourniquets around his arm as he injected heroin. At the age of eight, Palko's father was arrested during a standoff with state troopers after threatening his family with a shotgun.[2][3] By the time Palko was kicked out of high school, his mother had remarried twice, and he was beaten by his stepfather. Palko began using LSD, mescaline, cannabis and alcohol, and was sent to live with his uncle on a German military base, where he was beaten and sent home after a year.
Palko was arrested several times for drug possession and fighting in the streets. When he faced jail time for violating probation, his mother convinced the judge that he was mentally unstable, and he was sent to the Stoney Lodge psychiatric hospital for a two week evaluation. He eventually ended up staying in the hospital for eighteen months, where he was a part of a small group used to test fluoxetine.[3][4] After being misdiagnosed and placed on the drug, he became suicidal and made several attempts to kill himself, including hanging himself with his shoelaces and saving his lithium dose for a month before ingesting all of them at once.[2][3] He was illegally restrained over twenty times for periods of up to thirteen hours at a time by straitjacket and ten point bed restraints.[1][3"
