Only one I’d really take serious issue with is Rakim at 22, I think he should be around the top 10. His flow was Godlike, and influenced many after him. And where the hell is KRS-One?

First I really took notice of him was when dropped his verse in the Action Bronson track. I’ve kept up with him since, but nothing impressed me as much as that verse. I’ll give this a listen at some point, after I’ve finished listening to the Lost Tapes 2.

“Protect ya Neck” was my favourite song off the whole album. Clubs would go off when that came on. Do they mention Shyheim at all? “Bring the drama” was also one of the greatest songs produced.  “Fu*k a dog, my best friend’s a mac 10" was one of the grimiest starts to a verse ever.

In the UK they opened for R.Kelly around ‘94. They were amazing.

These 2 need their own 90's album. 

He will answer...using the medium of rap. Why answer for free when he can get paid?

Er...

Juice

Am I the only one that calls him ‘Danny Bland’? Looking forward to binging this weekend.

Think I was about 14, watched it with my parents. The opening scene in the ‘bath’ made me regret that instantly.

I was always bored of the song, until Lauryn did it live for Dave Chappelle’s block party. That made the hairs stand up on the back of my neck!

Just because we can’t benefit from being racist, doesn’t mean we can’t be racist. My caribbean grandmother is straight up racist...white people are the messiah to her, but asian, indian and african people are the devil. The queen is her messiah despite representing everything colonial England represents.

Still my favourite rapper ever. I still count myself lucky that I was able to see him live in concert in the UK. His verse on the flava in your ear remix was God like.

It’s not about the Athlete he was, it was about the man be became. Michael Jordan (?)isn’t going to leave the same legacy as him. Ali’s up there with cultural greats, not just talented sportsmen.

If you read the comments in the youtube video, apparently they’re members of the Qatari royal family... If so ‘diplomatic immunity’...

Shaun of the Dead was just perfect.

Why would you run with an Umbrella?
