Review: 
Ya'll already know it's a 5 MIC #Classic, so I'm not even going to waste your time on the rating. I'll be getting right to the Meat & Potatoes. 

Slick Rick is hands down one of the BEST storyteller MC's from the past. He's always put out quality work. Check his discography and bow down. 

The FUN part of doing these OLD SCHOOL reviews is the memories and quotable bars. I can still play this TAPE (Now Digital) over and over from front to back. I don't have to turn over the tape though. LOL! 

I notice that half the production was done by the "The Bomb Squad". If you don't know who they are, it's the production crew behind #HipHopClassics like Public Enemy and Ice Cube's come back after he divorced NWA. There production was as equal to any HOT producer you are checking for currently. 

When I first heard Mr. Rick, I fell in love with his voice and rhyme flow. He's a British rapper who was raised in the Bronx, New York. No rapper had that distinct voice and storytelling capacity prior to him. This is why people still to this day argue about if he's the best storytelling MC. 

Another reason I love about reviewing old school albums is the gems I find. I didn't know or remembered that he was also a producer. And a GREAT producer at that. Most of the tracks he did above are the WORLDS favorite. #HipHopClassic

Please go on your music source and press PLAY. I'm hoping that once you hear this for the first time or the 3,000th, that you appreciate what real Hip-Hop is. The entire album makes you wish you were around when it dropped. And I was and I feel so blessed. Slick Rick, thank you for your music. It got me through a lot back in the day. #HipHopSavedMyLife

G Fam Black VS Ceverely Yours

G Fam Black VS Ceverely Yours Dear G Fam Black, Thank you once again for participating in this interview. I know you don’t do many press features, and this is a wonderful chance for your fans to learn a bit about you while still keeping some of that mystery. I truly appreciate it. Peace, G. I’m grateful for this opportunity! - G Fam Black Questions & Answers: 1. Are you originally from Brockton Massachusetts? And where are the best places to eat? Absolutely, I was born and raised in Brockton. There are plenty of great food spots here. For the best chicken, I’d recommend “Yas Chicken” and “Birdies Hot Chicken”, which are both fantastic. For breakfast, I have to mention “Alexander's Family Restaurant”. They’ve been around since I was a kid, and their omelets are incredible. For pizza, “Cape Cod Cafe Pizza” is the way to go—it's the best bar pizza in the world, a true South Shore Massachusetts specialty. A lot of towns near Brockton brag about having the best bar pizza, but th...

Westside Gunn - "WHO MADE THE SUNSHINE" Album REVIEW

Westside Gunn is back with another project and this is the follow up for "FlyGod Is An Awsome God 2" and " FlyGod Is An Awesome God ". This project is actually on a major though.
