It took me 15 years to appreciate these GEMS. Sadat X, Gran Puba and Lord Jamar are all great mc's but i was sleeping on them as a white youth. I started listening to hip hop during the 'Shiny suits era'..'Brand Nubian' didn't appeal to me then so I kept on sleeping. I am glad I have never overplayed this because this music helps me bring my spirit up in these rough times.
