I remember when I first heard BFTE like it was yesterday. Someone I knew back then was going crazy over some rapper no one ever heard of before, when he played the tape everyone was like :whoo::ohhh:.

We swore dude was gonna be the third coming of Rakim back then.

He was never gonna be a mainstream rapper, but his potential been wasted.
