I will never forget the climate when this album dropped...2 months after pac killed...aeom still bangin...a dark cloud over hip hop...I was one month short of my 13th bday...
we heard of this new album droppin...but I didn't see any videos played or nothing...all of a sudden it drops...with some weird ass name...all those rumours and theories flying around
at the time me and my cousins were workin for my uncle...(even though we were all 12-15...on some immigrant child labour tip)...every Saturdays we would work at his bakery
so its 5:00 am...4 of us cousins sneak into our uncles van...work hasn't started yet...cousin pulls out makaveli and pops the tape in....the first words spoken...pacs fury unleashed...
bomb first...
then hail mary
we were fukkin blown away
20 years later that memory is fresh in my mind man...nothing will ever top that for me....
