Dope vid! I think I've seen it once before but you could watch this over and over. Apart from all the dancing which is obviously dope, you really get a glimpse of how "underground" the culture still was at this time when someone talks about crossing over to pop-culture as a positive thing when it was equal to selling out just a few years later.by GMM - Crate Digging: Hip Hop
Quoterchecka ^Nice how is that?? It features 2 previously released tracks in "Unity rap" which is average and "U-N-D-E-F-E-A-T-E-D" which is their finest moment. The unreleased stuff is a track called "Check it out" which is interesting for the (at the time) different beat and the chemistry between the 3 of them, which is nice. The other unreleased joint is calledby GMM - Crate Digging: Hip Hop
The reissued 12" of "Impeach the president". That song was always more than just a break! Plus: Cholly Rock - Cash money 12"by GMM - Crate Digging: Non Hip Hop
Out of the ones mentioned I gotta agree on Big K.R.I.T. The Roots album sounds very good but I haven't heard it in its entirety so gonna cop it soon. Action Bronson sounds too much like an inferior copy of Ghostface for me to get passed it, although the production is thight! I'm always catching up a lot towards the end of the year so I usually don't have much to add in threadby GMM - Crate Digging: Hip Hop

^^That fanning eyeballs comment just made my evening. Next time I'll start flapping ferenetically too and let's see if it's physically possible... But one the venting tip...How and why do people, who work 9 hours a day don't do jack, first of all keep their jobs, second of all manage to dump their failed work tasks on those who actually manage to produce something while geby GMM - General Discussion

Quoterchecka ^Nice, I haven't heard any Psalm One, but I heard of her, what's good? I'm just beginning to check out her work. The only thing Iäve heard in its entirety is the Get in the Van Vol 3 mixtape, which is DOPE! The odd tracks off her other albums/mixtaps I've heard have been just as good. She has a strong delivery, great flow and is witty enough to keep you interessby GMM - Crate Digging: Hip Hop

Quoteuptownkid QuoteGMM ...which place made the biggest impression on you? good question - greece, perhaps....definitely Jamaica. what about for you? I can imagine Jamaica making quite the impression on anyone! For me I gotta say Malta, mostly because the matlese culture and language are a very unique mix fo arab, brittish, roman and fench, which I found quite fascinating as aspectby GMM - General Discussion
Quoterchecka Congrats on the upcomming mouth to feed GMM! Lil GMM Junior, I hope it's a boy they are way less work LOL. Thanx! I have a daughter so I can't really imagine boys being anything less than MUCH easier, otherwise I'll be gray-haired or balled by 35.by GMM - General Discussion
