I have a hip-hop column for the school paper which is read by 28,000 students twice a week and also have a rap-based radio show on the school station. I'm not trying to brag or impress you by what I've got going on; I'm just trying to get across to you that I'm serious about hip-hop coverage and that I have a vast passion for rap music. I'm not even going to beat around the bush, you can write. I came across your "Love of My Life" article and was astounded by your skill. Your insight and methods of displaying your opinion combined to form a very well-written piece. Nice work... I'm in the process of forming my own hip-hop newspaper/magazine based out of Columbia, Missouri and Chicago, IL, which is where I go to school and live, respectively. I don't know anything about you or what you've got going on in your life, but I would love to put you on as a featured writer. I can't guarantee a timeframe on when all of this is going to happen, but until then I could and would definitely like to get you involved in my hip-hop column for my school paper by having you submit articles as a guest writer. You may think I'm some whack job college student who doesn't know what he's doing, but if you're even remotely interested in what I'm saying shoot me an e-mail at jwid5d@mizzou.edu. From, there we can talk more in depth about some of my ideas. Take it easy and nice article. Jon Ingram Alejandro,
