honestly, I don't even know if he dropped an album.

wasn't he some sort of rapping producer tho?

and didn't he have a joint with salt-n-pepa?

I could be wrong about all of this.

You're scraping the bottom of the barrel at this point. Any plans to do 99? 2001, Black On Both Sides, Murda Muzik, Things Fall Apart, Slim Shady LP, Internal Affairs, Nas Is Like. I'm sure I'm forgetting some other stuff.

we didn't even really get into the summer joints yet. this year was deep.

yea, there'll be a '99 thread like next year when they hit that 15th anniversary.

:laff: @ scraping the bottom of the barrel.:laff:

rufus blaq was pretty zzzzzzzzz.

his lp had two good cuts, out of sight and artifacts of life with the lox. the rest was wack as fukk.

that artifacts of life joint was :wow: though. that was a joint that got him on many mixtapes back then.

and blackstar's lp was great. "thieves in the night" is STILL my fukking jam to this day. the lyrics, that beat, simply classic.

Wow at Artifacts Of Life!!!!


Wasn't the weaker version on the album though where they chop up the piano instead of letting the loop ride out like on the mix tapes?

that's a spot-on analysis of that dude. busta and puff rolled into one.

clicking on that link tho, I realize that he wasn't as wack as I thought he was back then. still weak tho.

who remember the militia?

that's the 1st time I saw ms toi. all this time, I thought she was in the group. I just now found out that she was just a feature.




THE 2ND SINGLE FROM THE MIC GERONIMO ALBUM WAS DOPE.

TOO MUCH TOO LATE, I SUPPOSE.
