Lord Jamar talks Brand Nubian, the role that Grand Puba played and how the Nubians were able to create the classic 'In God We Trust' album. We also talk 5 Percenter history and where the nation is in 2014. Finally we tackle his controversial views on gays and whites in hip hop. It ain't pretty and this is an official disclaimer that Lord Jamar's views aren't shared by The Combat Jack Show.

the fact this dude has a voice in 2014 is ridiculous since NONE of it is based on music.

That's kinda backwards imo. One of the biggest letdowns from early 90's political/conscious hip-hop was that these artists were supposed to be voices of our community & culture regardless of whether they had a hot album or not. Instead a lot of artists started compromising the ideals they had previously set forth in attempts to be "relevant" in the musical landscape. Either that or just had a hard time maintaining notoriety when their records stopped selling. He clawed his way back into the spotlight and he's kept pretty true to his beliefs, if nothing else I respect him for that.

The first Brand Nubian album was one of the first rap albums I remember getting bootlegged heavy. Everybody had that on tape
