black thought is one of the best rappers ever. the roots and de la soul, dope. wish i could see it
I think The Roots & De La Soul are the most consistent groups in hip-hop history.
Damn. This is gonna be nice.
Rakim was good in late 80’s and early 90’s but his last three albums have been trash.

Be easy kids, Rah is who Nas looked up to and Respected, Rah is a Iconic Legened in Rap History. One of the first to rock heavy “Ice” in the videos.
