Diamond is one of my all-time favorites, but even still, I'm not as familiar with his catalog as I outta be. That KRS joint was bananas.

I dug this ep in spite of the hosts. it annoyed me that they spent so much time letting songs from the 'mixtape' play out—play a snippet and let the man talk so you can squeeze in more gems. (that being said, I'm surprised they went with 'The Light' over 'The Truth' on Pharoahe's album.) still a dope listen, tho.

now that Diam Piece has an instrumental version, I'm ready to dive in...
