[KENNY DA COOKER]

cant believe how ahead of his time he was rapping wise

I'm still in awe of the things he was saying in 1989!!!

"I Ain't a SOLOIST, i'm an ARSONIST"- RAKIM blacksout, disses LL and even drops gems

Respect from one noir Elohim to another

 

[KENNY DA COOKER]

I remember copping this mixtape off of Fulton ave in BK back in the day with a compilation of various NYC Mcees like Master Ace..Lord Finesse..

but RAKIM lines always stood out

HE RAPPED LIKE HE WAS POSSESSED


Lyrics make me a menace

When it's in a sentence then it's finished

More pure than raw,

much more above the law

I don't go on tour, I go to war!

 

[BulletProof]

I want that Jacket.

I have a replica of an iconic jacket of an artist I won't mention.

I want this jacket and Ryan Gosling's Scorpion jacket from Drive.

Hip hop has two time periods, BR and AR. (Before Rakim, After Rakim) What more can you say about dude?
