No disrespect, y'all really don't know about the crack epidemic, how sad and bad shit was, and all the loss and pain
And that's good. Stay with your selfies and all that, its a testament to what real African Americans went through...love is love
It not only built the music but it crafted a lot of shit about society, these interviews really take you into the Zeigeist of the times
(LOL @ a nigga like Chief Keef...nigga would last 40 seconds in the hood in the 80s...he can get away with that shit in this era)
>only thing i knew about him was the my name is d nice song >so the first half was interesting to me cause of the >historical context >but assuming u already knew all that stuff (which most of yall >did) what was interesting about that interview?
The details about how dude felt personally responsible for Scott La Rocks' death? That death was pretty much the most important moment in rap history pre Biggie/Tupac and more tragic in a lot of ways since Scott was a regular peacemaking dude...plus Scott was about to take over everything, had the good heart and charisma
I was in the Bronx around that time as a little boy and didn't know all these details...definitely didn't know how KRS blamed D-Nice for the shit
And all the reconciliation and healing
That's grown man shit, a lot of y'all too little to even know what death means
