Just learned part of the origins of Super Chron naming this album Cape Verde. woods and Priviledge were out of their minds on this. And Willie Green, Bond, and others were flames behind the boards. One of the 10 best albums of the 2010s.

gotta hand it to him. first rapper to have a federal judge tell them they lost a battle is historic.
A federal judge has dismissed Drake’s defamation lawsuit against UMG over Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us.”
“Because the Court concludes that the allegedly defamatory statements in “Not Like Us” are nonactionable opinion, the motion to dismiss is GRANTED.”

I recently went on the Return To Zero podcast hosted by @UrkelMoeDee and @j_ducker . We chatted about ‘Independent As F***’, classic hip-hop underground tracks, record stores, and more. Listen here: mixcloud.com/returntozero/in…
Me and @UrkelMoeDee had a great convo with @GrownUpRap about his “Independent As F**k” book and underground hip hop through the years, all on our Return to Zero podcast. You’ll forgive if I got caught up in the life and times of Mr. Bongo. I love me some o.g. record stores.
On episode 108 of Return to Zero, @j_ducker and I converse with @GrownUpRap about his new book ‘Independent as F***: Underground Hip-Hop From 1995-2005’, and the past, present, and future of underground hip hop. We also play a few key tracks from the era.
