Dice from Legion is my guy.

So we all went up for the video shoot. We were kids, but back then we all thought "Jingle Jangle" was a dope track! I still play it all the time. Dres had a dope verse on it, and I always liked the beat.

Song is incredible. Around this time Dres was damn near Luda status on a guest verse, crazy how the industry pushed him aside at the peak of his talent.

I think the second Black Sheep album was really what derailed things for him. First album was classic and just had a ton of untouchable tracks. The second one was a big disappointment. I copped it right away and just felt like they seemed to have lost all direction. Dres wasn't the same after that, to me.

Grench I think is either Snoop or Kurput's cousin he committed suicide, I read somewhere that all his siblings and parents passed too.





I actually spoke to NME on facebook years ago, he said they were signed to Def Jam but when biggie got killed they were dropped from the label.

I haven't heard this joint in ages! This was a dope track. Back when everyone was filming videos uptown. Those were the days!

They definitely stole Puba's whole flow. But it made sense because they were from around Puba's way. One of the last groups to really make some noise out of New Rochelle.

They defiantly ran with that Puba style, had they been around these days this wouldn't be much of an issue jocking a style.
