a 20-year run of exhilarating personal victories, painful defeats, humbling reality checks, awkward dates on which I had to keep a straight face while I told a grown woman I was a rapper she???d never heard of,

haha, excellent.





Great list - Wassup now murthafucka was my shit too on that artitfacts record. Id never heard of that Odd Squad record before for some reason. Sounds nice, will cop. Smart brainless rap ftw.
 
That Rap a Lot tune is nice, but a lotta those songs suck. Slept on for a reason.
 
Not so much a "Slept-On" tracks off albums (I can never remember most great album filler tracks). Just a few nice tracks I enjoyed that year.

Get out your dueling pistol Shied, it's time to settle up after such an outrage.
 
I remember seeing that Tweedy in the Warehouse bins when I was a kid. QL must have spurned him.

I listened to the whole album last night just to check how it sounds in 2014 and you are either bonkers or are still stuck on some residual hater ish from way back.
 
Man, what a year for Rap-A-Lot in fact...
