Skillz is a cool cat. Ghostwriter is one of the first songs that got me into hip-hop outside of strictly music

Put VA on the map...literally D'Angelo was first, but Skillz was the first rapper...linked with Q-Tip early...Timbo & Missy were on their way though...and of course Pharrell was coming too, he talks about how he met him in the episode
