By 96, Clue officially took the mixtape crown from Ron G and Doo Wop

yeah it really was , not only Pac getting killed...

but i also broke up with my first girlfriend after a good run together

also marked the beginning of me fukking up my credit down the line because i went on a traveling and spending binge just to escape all the bullshyt

so the "DARK, DEPRESSING" music of MOBB DEEP, CHILDREN OF THE CORN, THE WU, DUCKDOWN kinda created the soundtrack for that era of my life

thank god clue didn't try and spit like other certain dj's..

clue brought another element to some joints for eg affirmative action and brooklns finest..his voice blended in so well and became part of it, dope shyt.

@Tuaminator @The HONORABLE SKJ I see 96 a lil differently because it was the year I graduated from High School and entered college. Plus I was ripping and running the streets heavy without any fear factor (although in retrospect that can be seen as a negative) Plus the music and party scene was at an all time high. I was having the most fun. I would say the previous year, 95, was a little bit more depressing. That year it seem like everyone I knew was getting knocked off. I remember in the course of that whole summer, about 15 people that I knew personally, all got murdered in the span of 3 months. No exaggeration.

bump

Don't get me wrong, I give Clue his props for dropping the xclusives and shytting on BIG and Puffy with bootlegs but it never gave me the feeling I use to get when Doo Wop dropped a mixtape and had Snagglepuss and his crew spitting freestyles at the beginning.. Or DJ Rated R with the blends.. even dj sns screaming outta control. Good era.. But yea, dj clue came thru and crushed the buildings..
