    I’m so glad you made this video DJ Kenny Parker. Speaking of the west coast, I was curious to know how Kenny Parker Show 2001 came about. I’d imagine KRS flipping out at the idea of another emcee remixing his lyrics but listening to the song apparently KRS gave Xzibit his blessing. Hope he got yours too. What did you think of the final product? Also there was a rapper back in the 90’s from the west coast that dissed KRS named Tweedy Bird Loc on the songs called “Outta Here” and “F The South Bronx This Is Compton”. Did anybody in the BDP crew know of this guys existence back then or years later? He passed away a few years ago but I was always curious if KRS at least heard about this guy and his disses.

    • @djkennyparker
      @djkennyparker  Год назад +1

      Since I didn't produce or write the song, I had no idea about Xzibit's version of "The Kenny Parker Show" until it came out. Imagine my surprise, LOL! I never heard of Twitty Bird Loc.

    Before he was an icon and movie star, Tupac was doing the “Humpty Dance” with Oakland’s own funkadelic freaks of the industry, taking on roadie work as a stopgap measure while Shock G and manager Atron Gregory shopped a demo that had future single “Trapped.” In his years with the group, Digital Underground would give Tupac his first tour (with Big Daddy Kane), his first released verse (“Same Song”) and his first movie role (1991’s Nothing but Trouble). They produced and rapped on his first Top 10 single, “I Get Around.” However, as Shock points out, “It’s a lucky thing in the other direction. Pac discovered us, man, we didn’t discover his ass. No way.”

Then know him super well but we got to do some things super cool super humble the girls love him that's for sure and honestly half the reason why I like to hang out with him. Also met B Real now without saying much I believe he might have had family in Sactown but once again super cool. These guys are my heroes weather there if they're still with us or if they're not. It's always cool to meet royalty and they're actually cool cuz I've met some that were super wack.
