I Remember Late 90’s Hip Hop Stagnating A Bit & There Weren’t As Many Ba

I Remember Late 90’s Hip Hop Stagnating A Bit & There Weren’t As Many Back To Back Solid Releases As There Was Prior To ‘97 So I Went Underground. There Were All These New Dudes Killin’ It Below The Surface & I Knew One Day They’d Blow Up. U Could See 'Em One By One Gettin’ Deals, Debut Albums & All That. It Was Frustrating Tryna Convice Heads To Listen To This New Shit Cuz Underground Was About To Take Over, Nah They Were More Concerned About The Jiggy Era Bling Shit. I Was So Far Underground I Didn’t Notice Who DMX Was. It Was Actually My Little Brother Who Put Me On To Him. The First Time I Heard Damien, It Was A Wrap. So Thank You DMX For Providing Real Heads Something To Fuck Wit During Those Dark Ages & Peace To My Little Brother For Opening My Ears To The Man. ✌
