And yeah, my dumbass friend gave me the name "The Governor".



not that jay-1 was taken by a producer or a music related guy... but there is a cat using that who is a king in his own domain:

i guess not .. unless you do both. but still... some might want to be original so taking cope2 would be as far from original as it can get with out stealing another musician's alias.

I think I can come up with three different Mono/Poly's lol...

Wonder if most of them got it from the very nice Korg 4 osc (!!!!!!!!) Analog Synth from the 70's.
