The "based" rapper explained his movement as spontaneous and "unconscious," saying, "Based really is being yourself, being positive, not really worrying too much about what people think about you. Really saying what comes to your mind first... It's like unconscious. Really not premeditating, saying, 'I'mma do this, I'mma say this, I'mma be this way,' but really just going with the flow." Like fellow rap upstart and supporter, Soulja Boy, Lil B has risen to fame, albeit on a much smaller scale, via the powers of social networking, gaining inspiration by one fan in particular whom he met through MySpace. "I made about 155 MySpace pages," Lil B explained. "I really hold the world record for that. It was crazy. I have seven songs each page, so five songs the minimum, so that's times 155. That's when I started and I was really doing it for one supporter. There was one guy. He was on there like 'Man, I love your songs.' I was like, as long as one person's listening to me and one person cares about me, I'm going to keep going." FREE ASSOCIATION RAP IS BASED RAP FIRST WORD TO THE MIND. THEREFORE EVERYTHING IS BASED NOTHING IS PRECONCEIVED. RIGHT FROM THE TONGUE RIGHT FROM THE INTIAL THOUGHT PROCESS SPARKED. LIL B IS THE FOUNDER OF BASED RAP ALTHOUGH HE DID NOT INVENT IT. CHARLES HAMILTON RAP BASED AND HE OFTEN DID NOT KNOW IT. BASED ALWAYS EXISTED BUT KNOW ONE WANTED TO TAKE PRIDE IN IT UNTIL LIL B. THE BASEDGOD. I WISH I HAD TAKEN COURAGE AT AGE 11 TO BASED FREESTYLE BUT I THANK ...
