15. "i think it was actually 2nd or 3rd grade" In response to In response to 13
my cousin from brooklyn came to live with us in indiana for a year because he was in some uh...trouble...legally and well, i guess wise-guy trouble... anyway, he was 18 and rude and bad and cool as fuck to me...and he introduced me to real NY hiphop (by this i mean stuff other than RUNDMC and Beastie Boys, etc) He left me a mixtape (which i still will never know who half the artists were) and that UTFO - Lethal
I mean S.W.A.T., Diss, Ask Yo Mama, The Ride, Mo' Bass, Burn in Bed...man that was just a great album front to back
>wasnt expecting anyone to bring them up
exactly...that's why i did...it surprises me how much they get left out of the "hiphop pioneers" discussion around here...I mean you get lots of cats who know "Roxanne Roxanne" from an old-school compilation or whatever, but Lethal gets overlooked all the time... unless i'm talking to someone 29+...i guess you had to be there or something...
