TheMeaningOfDope

Down with Funk Flex was the rapper formerly known as “9MM”.

This is his appearance on Yo! MTV Raps back in 94. Ed Lover, thank you for that classic “pause” moment.

Shouts to DJ Nes on this classic material!

Here it is, first post, JC- Kweezy- Ace Lover-be i see’s you. So it’s my birthday, a year away from 30 and i’m feeling mighty negative. On that note, i thought i’d go and share my favorite diss track of all time. Everyones always talking Bitch in You this, No Vaseline that, but how bout a little known Craig G track, off his lesser known 2nd LP. Juice Crew law out the window, Craig G goes IN on Mc Shan.Enjoy.

FACT: Digital Underground used to be jammin’ to the Nice and Smooth tape on their tourbus.

Here’s part 2 of the Nice and Smooth interview I posted earlier.   Tietop hats in full effect, big up the OG Triple 5 Soul when it was a total hip-hop fashion staple.  That big logo Champion sweater is hurting my feelings a bit too.  They were such good quality.

It always impresses me how aware and eloquent mc’s/rappers were during this period of time.  It’s like they all got degrees and THEN started putting out music.
