There’s few things I love as much as hip-hop.⠀
⠀
One of them is The Sopranos.⠀
⠀
The moment in 1999 when I watched Season 1, Episode 6 where they used XZIBIT’s “Paparazzi” instrumental blew my mind.

Happy birthday to Jake One.⠀
⠀
The man has produced many classics, but “Rock Co.Kane Flow” with De La Soul and MF DOOM, from The Grind Date, is his masterpiece.⠀

'Milk is chillin, Giz is chillin, what more can I say? Top billin...' - Audio Two

In the studio about to rhyme ‘Ben E King’ with henny wings

Like a ’64 Impala

Gift of Gab is one of the unsung heroes of hip hop, especially during the 21st century. This is one of the best albums he was a part of. Check it out.

It's a beautiful feeling seeing how happy it makes some artists when I get their work in print. I still get a kick seeing my name on the page but it's extra special when I know how much others appreciate it.

1 Million on Spotify! Thank You 🌼
