Member it like it was yesterday back in "92", G Rap was kicking this jam on the stage at Mahorns in Cherry hill Nj..I was standing right there on stage just a few feet a way watching the crowd go bananas!..it was sick. He killed it! I'm glad to have experienced that once in a life time moment right there watching a Giant Hip Hop Legend in action. Took it all for granted at the time. You know how it is when you're a teenager, you're thinking it's all going to last forever. You don't realize what you had until it's all gone. It was truly a timeless honor to have inhaled that moment seeing Kool G Rap set fire to the stage.
I'm year 78 baby!!! When I first heard K.G.R. I was young at the time!! Something about K.G.R was before his time!!! I just want him to be acknowledged as 1 of the best
7/20/1968 A GENIUS WAS BORN BY THE NAME OF KOOL G RAP. MAN IF HE AINT IN UR TOP FIVE OR TOP THREE EVER I DONT KNOW WHAT TO TELL U. THE DOUBLE AND TRIPLE SYLLABLES IS FANTASTIC. BEEN ROCK N WITH G RAP SINCE 86 ITS A DEMO. A TRUE LEGEND AT ITS FINEST AND TO ME THE BEST TO EVER DO IT. STILL RELEVANT IN 2021. THANX G RAP FOR 35 YEARS OF GREATNESS AND COUNTING. GOD BLESS. 🙏💯☝

He's always been my favorite out of all the legends. I learned how to tell stories from G-Rap. He never got the credit he deserved when people mention legends. G-RAP Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, Nas, Krs my top 5
Real talk, it’s really between him and Ra and that’s it, bars, cadence, wordplay and never once needed to change his flow to rhyme his words, literally a flawless lyricist, Emcee and storyteller G rap absolutely had it all!
