Listening to the last few minutes of Phil's message gave me a rush!
It felt good to hear that dose of truth....almost like it was a drug!

Yep. Phil talking straight facts about what's happening with that migrant situation and who will benefit. 

 

AfroAmericans waiting too much time waiting on White folks to treat them right:

 

 

 

Here we are 30 years later. Very little has changed when it comes to building a solid, self-sufficient AfroAmerican economic infrastructure.😎

Man, you went BACK for that one....lol.
Before I even clicked on it I heard the song playing in my mind.

I liked Chubb, even more so than Biggie to be honest with you.
Seems he had more of a positive message and his flow was clearer and cleaner.

....but he didn't have a Puff Daddy behind him hyping him up.
Say what you want but back in the day, Puffy could hype anybody and make them a star overnight.

Different MCs.

 

Chubb was on a literate and party vibe. He came along before rappers got heavy into spinning street tales.

 

Biggie was masterful lyricist and storyteller. He made a few party records but most of his were street stories.

Puffy probably enjoyed being a hype man as much as a record mogul.🤣😎

Interesting that both of them....along with Heavy D....come from a Jamaican background.

Chubb and Heavy were definitely more COHERENT than Biggie...lol.

He had (and still has) an eye for talent.
