Just seen G Whiz around my way. Gave him a dap and asked him how he and his daughter were doing. Very chill guy. No Nas questions. Kept it moving to the gym.

His song (or interlude, really) on The Firm album was dope to me.

Dope read and very relevant:

'I Gave You Power': Nas' Plea For Gun Control Still Remains Relevant | Huffington Post

Excerpt:

"As two boys who were on the cusp of evolving into young black men, my father wanted us to ingest the importance of Nas’ message. We had to be aware of our surroundings. The world has changed immensely since the release of “I Gave You Power,” but the issue of gun violence in America has, more or less, remained the same. Aside from being a baronial and complex story, Nas’ song was a forewarning of what was to come. And as my dad relayed to my brother and I as the song ended, to be forewarned is to be forearmed"
