Skill and Recognition
Aside from recognition from Kay Slay, Dre Robinson has also garnered recognition from Cappadonna, who when asked which rap artists he listened to replied, “I like a lot of rappers around the way. This cat Dre Robinson in Boston made me grab my pen.”
Dre Robinson is considered unique for a Boston rapper. He has the type of lyrical ability found in such Boston rappers as Mr. Lif, Edo G, Akrobatik, Daney Foxxwoodz & Young Argo as well as the mainstream appeal and punchline swagger of Jadakiss, Fabolous, and Big L. As a result, he has collaborated with a wide range of both underground and mainstream artists including Big Shug, Papoose, Chamillionaire, Mobb Deep and Suzanna Lubrano.

Famous quotes containing the words skill and/or recognition:
“For in the word death
There is nothing to grasp; nothing to catch or claim;
Nothing to adapt the skill of the heart to, skill
In surviving, for death it cannot survive,
Only resign the irrecoverable keys.
The wave falters and drowns. The coulter of joy
Breaks. The harrow of death
Depends. And there are thrown up waves.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“Productive collaborations between family and school, therefore, will demand that parents and teachers recognize the critical importance of each other’s participation in the life of the child. This mutuality of knowledge, understanding, and empathy comes not only with a recognition of the child as the central purpose for the collaboration but also with a recognition of the need to maintain roles and relationships with children that are comprehensive, dynamic, and differentiated.”
—Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)
