13250981, This Wasn't Bad At All, They Really Mentioned A Lot Posted by Dj Joey Joe, Tue Apr-17-18 01:55 AM
I thought they was going to pass over a lot of stuff but they really got it all but it's not it's a ton of stuff to miss, but the problem is that most underground hip-hop head knew most of the info for years, the only thing I was surprised about was how Puba said he was only getting 90cents per album for "2000" which was a dope release, ahead of it's time if you ask me, cause him & Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth with their second album was on that smooth but boom-bap sound while others were on the commercial hip-hop which came and gone but now everyone was doing the smooth boom-bap sound in the 2001-2010 era.
At first I was kinda pissed they're doing 90's hip-hop acts on Unsung when it's still a ton of r&b & funk groups from the 70's that's got hardly no attention but every vinyl digger is looking for their records and sampling them over and over such as The Whatnauts, Syl Johnson, or Creative Source, and then you got the disco/funk producers who wrote & produced a ton of songs, albums, & acts that was in high demand but by the 90's nobody was messing with them anymore, such as Leroy Burgess, Norman Whitfield, or John Davis that Unsung could be doing a good/decent bio on.
