IIRC, they were (are?) on Basement Records, which my dad's friend helped build up, and I got to meet them a while back. Nice guys, great rappers!
awesome i saw em live at an in store at the basement back in 2002. great store use to go down there chill hit up grooveriders n' tower records (rip). those stores still there ? (besides tower obviously closed) i moved away haven't been around there in years.
 
Groove Riders is, although it moved across the street to one of the sidestreets, still there. Moved due to rent issues probably.

The Basment has changed, man. Bobby (My dad's friend) no longer owns it, and its bascially now a clothing and atmosphere store. I basically live in that area, so im there all the time, and I dont really see any music in the store any more. Its really sad.

I remember I saw Pigeon John back there when all he had out was Pigeon John is Clueless.

Damn, memories.

and ya, Tower is now an Urban Living.

Damn there is some good fucking rappers in the 90s.. i've been checking out all this new shit (well new to me). But still i am lovin' this AZ Doe or Die album. This AZ guy is fuckin nuts.. i love this shit, and i usually don't like rap music.. i even showed it to my friends that dont like rap either and now they all love this AZ album.. they are like "Dude who is this CD that you left in my car again? this shit is good!"



Thanks for all the good shit to check out JoeTheStoner. I am loving this shit.. man i have so much material now its time to burn a new CD!! time for the 90's hip-hop stylee mix .. I love discovering new music

Theres many to name and a lot of the best have been. Wu Tang 36 Chambers is a Classic album from the 90's. Biggie got me into hip hop.

I don't think anyone mentioned Mobb Deep, The Infamous is a great album.

I also really like D12's "The Underground EP" if you don't like them now it'll make you apreciate them as rappers. Ol Dirt Bastard's "Return to the 36 Chambers: The Dirty Version".

Those are a couple of my favorites.
 
yeah they did a song with shaq...... must have needed money or something

I like that style, like Das EFX too

Das EFX is so underrated
