      I don't want to be a party pooper, just wanted to point out a fun fact that you're roughly only 250k hours old. So listening to hundreds of thousands of hours is basically impossible xD Unless you lied your age and are acutally a vampire, who knows 🤷
      Jokes and facts aside, even tho I ain't a fan of rap music, but the 90's stuff is just too good not to like it. It's real, guys don't boast about having bitches, money and cars. No neon braided kids shouting skrrrt every two seconds. Real problems, real life. Got to respect that.
      I also blame(thank) GTA San Andreas with the bomb radio tracks, and I bet you can relate since we're roughly the same age.

      Have a love hate that it’s underground. I specifically will rep underground shit, because it’s where I’ve found the truest shit. I think Makin a name for yourself in the underground is much more of an accomplishment than Makin it onto the radio. Only thing, i feel it’s lost it’s feel due to social media you know? Like it doesn’t feel as personal as it used to.

    Best era in hip hops history, not for the sound, but for what hip hop stood for. The escape of the hell that was an urban lifestyle. Where men were universally cut down for ripping off someone else, where originality reigned king and bars weren’t just for prison cells.
