KRS-One?? Naahhh…I don’t like KRS no more ’cause he just think
he’s too dope. He let his ego take over his shyt and that’s what brings
him down. When he was like that (shouts “Blow it to yourself”), when he was
like that, then he was a ten but now, ‘I am Hip Hop’!!! Eat a dikk nikka.
Eat a muthaphukkin dikk!

^^^^thats really all this thread was pointing out. Even I didn't realize how young he was when that album came out. We all talk about how BIG & Pac were dead at that age but Krs One to have had that run of BDP albums all under his belt by 25 is mind blowing.

Compare the content on Eduarainment...when he was what 23!!?? To J Cole rapping about college at 28.

The shyt really is a trip when you put it all in perspective......I mean listening to this cut right now, shyt will ALWAYS sound dope, Ronald Reagan was STILL president. EVERY black person I knew HATED that muthafukka when I was a kid. Parents, teachers, muthafukkaz on the block, black leaders, rappers.



Man, different era where there was a sense of urgency like time was running out......on and off wax. Some of these cats can call it what they want, but cats like KRS, Cube, Chuck, even Pac a lil later, cause he was influenced under the pro black umbrella. Those cats was speakin to the souls of black men and youngins during some fukked up times.

The music STILL speaks volumes to this day.

Wherever nikkas need to be told on
Are you fukking retarded? Krs mobilized the entire east coast rap genre to make a monster song called self destruction SPECIFICALLEY aimed at the preservation, worth and glorious nature of being Afrocentric within a crack riddled environment spearhedading through ACTUAL TANGIBLE ACTION AND RESULTS that has crack dealers hush hushing their moves.
That fact that a white poster is telling a black poster this:laff::dead:
