I was really sad when Gift of Gab passed in 2021. Both Nia and Blazing Arrow got a lot of playtime when I was a teen.

4th dimensional rocket ships going uuup!
That was my shit in high school...
Ah yeah also a nice album! This has also jogged my memory of some of the other Quannum MC’s like Lyrics Born and Lateef. Haven’t listened to them for a long time
Center in the middle of my inner with a riddle
Smoke a penner put a little bit of ginger in my dinner meal
Feeling ill stealing the show like a criminal
Cleaning out the mucus in your grill like benadryl
Damn!
This is some nice stuff; I don't think I have heard of them before, and if I did, I don't remember!
I had to download some of those M4A files so as to add them to my playlist!
This song is about how shallow most rap and hip hop music is today, and how we should be careful what we say because it influences people’s behaviour, especially children.
