dj Kayslay and Alpo went to school together.... Slay wouldnt put no fake sh1t on his mixtape like that if LL was lying
Rap and Gangland: Drugs, Guns, Hustle and Flow « Gorilla Convict
Alberto Alpo Martinez, Rich Porter and Azie Faison were teenage drug lords from 1980s Harlem. Their flashy styles influenced rappers like LL Cool J, who wrote a whole album, Walking with the Panther, about hanging out with them and street culture in general. The teenage drug lords were trendsetters of epic proportions. From crack cocaine kingpins to inner-city legends, the trends Alpo and Rich Porter set still resonate today. With the Gucci leather suits, fur coats and chains, rappers from LL to Camron have bit their style and made them iconic in hip-hop.

Why do you clowns always have to compare whats better then what?
Why can't you just accept the music for what it is, they both do what they do for what it's made for and have their place.
I think he knew em..but thas the subplot of this thread.
The title of the thread says this song is better than Nas' "Queens Story"
sh1t goes back to the 70's when HipHop first started..... who can find that footage of Melle Mel kicking it with the Supreme Team back in da day?
Yup...I mean even when u listen to Memory lane and stuff before that u can see the mix of hip hop with notorious cats from the street.
People prolly missed that when DMX made "Get at me Dog" he even referenced chilling with cats in Baltimore.
Add athletes too..,they often hung/hang with rappers who often hav street cats on their team.yeah that sh1t goes way back in hiphop.... Dj Quik was shouting out legendary drug kingpins and pimps he kicked it with on Safe & Sound
