Sapient would be such a nerd if he wasn’t so god damn cool.  I mean dude just has an attitude that is equal parts ‘fuck the world’ and ‘I love everybody’.  Seriously one of the absolute nicest and most respectful emcees that I have ever met.  And when it comes to his music honesty is the game he plays and he has no qualms about talking about the REAL life that he is living.  No gimmicks or tall tales leak into his rhyme schemes.  Interesting how you can still grab a fanbase talking about the day to day things that most of us are going through instead of drawing up these crazy imaginary lifestyles that not only is nobody actually living but nobody can relate to either.  When it comes down to it Sapient is a family man who is just struggling to find himself in the world and make sense of his existence.  I find myself in that same boat so his music definitely appeals to me and leaves me feeling like I have a friend out in Portland who understands my plight.
