   It’s nice to sit back and be a fan of some solid work from two accomplished emcees. Much appreciated. This is a small piece of the Hip Hop I am a family member of. One Love…

   btw. adding to fresh lyrics and music, peep my version of Exhibit C by Jay Electronica and Just Blaze. No diss so you internet nerds can’t start anything. Just adding my flavor to it since it’s so much conversation

    Nothing more to say… My dude P-Soul said it all… the sight, speech and utter of hip-hop in its purist form can bring me to tears at any point and anytime… Rest in Beats to dilla and long live BK’s ambassadors, BlackStarr……..

    Got the chills……I guess BlackStar will come out when it’s the right time. I’m disappointed at myself for not coppin’ the Ecstatic album. Good job fellas. J Dilla is eternal.

    Wow! I can’t believe it’s been over 10 years since BlackStar first dropped. I still bump that album like it came out yesterday. Some music is just timeless.
