Taking a look around; peeping game..its like Egypt…all I see is Total Chaos!

Even took some of their own people down..collateral damage; as drama replaces peace they once had! 

…….If they ever had it; its Just an Illusion like that group Imagination was telling some! 

Meanwhile we have the hot message for ya;  please!! there’s  no information overload…O-Zone has this good word while O-Dizzle is using the drum!  check out the rest of this article at  THE SONIC ASSAULT!!!…..STEADY BOMBARDMENT!!!!: Total Chaos / Caught Up In It.
