im not saying moe dee is better than krs, but lyrically he dam sure is.

BY FAR.



nah. they dont show under-the-radar artists. its all certified legends give or take 1 or 2 questionable picks. the term "unsung" is based on the fact that most black legends do not get their just due unless youre one of the usual suspects. the show is basically for those that arent the usual suspects.

same with rap, except theyre more selective with the rap picks. this is more of an r&b/soul/funk show. so the idea of tragedy khadafi having an episode is out the window. hell, cold crush having an episode might even be a longshot.

but yea, the furious five is definitely in line for an episode at some point. and i remember eric b & rakim being a voting option a couple years ago. basically, if you had a big rap career with HITS, youre a candidate. the only rappers with HITS from way back when that could be considered too big for this show are run dmc, ll cool j, salt n pepa, beastie boys & NWA.

I see, Furious Five would be dope then. I know Rakim gets a lot of acclaim but think it would be a great episode so hoping that happens too.

I was surprised at how good of an episode it was. I was surprised at ConFunkShun and Angela Bofill too. Honestly, when the shows were announced for this season I thought it was a weak lineup, but they have done some damn good shows. Moe Doe had dudes shook. I still laugh at that Golden Child outfit he wore on How Ya Like Me Now.

the part that had me on stuck was the segment about the graffitti rock episode that treacherous three did with run dmc.

im thinking like, did jam-master jay threaten kool moe dee when he told him to take it easy during the "battle"? or was that just a common occurrence where djs looked out for their crew back then? anybody know?

for those that missed it, moe dee said that jay walked up to him backstage and said "you cant go in on them like you did to busy bee. take it easy".
