Who remembers King Sun?

[Newark88]

For the young heads, King Sun was basically a light skin Rakim without the big mainstream appeal. He came out during the time Hip Hop was on the pro black trend, spitting 5% lingo in his songs. I had his first two albums (XL and Righteous But Ruthless) on cassette as a young lad. Sun had some joints.

 

[Jesus Is Lord]

Didn't like the beef with him and Cube. Two of my fav rappers.

 

[Beedad]

I bumped into him about 5 times downtown on Broad and Market or at the arcade back in the day. He was with Twin Hype and those cats. Wasn't he from Patterson or something?

Yeah he from Paterson. I remember being 12 and sneaking out to see him perform at Sensations dowtown on Brandford Pl

 

[OG Talk]

Yeah he had beef with Cube and Da Lench Mob...I think they got into it at one of those Jack The Rapper conferences they used to have in Atlanta...


"Ice Cube got them devils on the run. Down with King Sun"

Every time I think of Sensations now that I'm an adult.... I think about that long, crowded ass hallway that was a deathtrap if anything really jumped off in there. It used to be rammed!

 

[Change]

I always like King Sun. This is some of my favorite later work of his

[RealestSinceKumbaya]

I thought this was about King Just, always confused the 2 cuz of the name
