I went to prairie view A&M in 1999.

people werent listening to dmx in bumfuck waller county texas at that time, i mean he was somewhat known but that was some east coast shit and the east coast/west coast thing...was kinda real.

but i did.

that flesh of my flesh blood of my blood LP got HELLA burn in my dorm room and at first my roomie and others in the dorm was like man turn that bullshit OFF and crank this BG or whatever

the PV football team was like...0 for the 90s. look it up. they lost EVERY damn game...for a decade. I dunno why they even had a damn football team for real.

PV was in the middle of nowhere...and kids would bounce every wknd back to dallas or houston if they could because wasnt shit popping on campus on the wknd (hanging out in the walmart parking lot was a major deal then)

well the team broke that streak and won in Fall 99. I was a communication student, and would just kick it at the on campus radio station (shout out KPVU 91.3) which broadcast the games too (who tf listened? nobody)

well, as it became apparent they might win...all you could see was a line of headlights...motherfuckers was driving back and it was a one lane road into the campus...all you saw was headlights for miles coming in.

when they won...that whole campus went tf AWF. remains one of the best parties I have ever been at. they ripped up the goalposts and carried them shits around the yard and dumped up on the university president front yard (LOL)

my roomie was on the football team and when they came back the next day...dude came in and was like TURN THAT DMX UP
