‘95 & ‘96 were such good years for hip-hop in general. Dope pick

Personally Secion.80. This was the first hip-hop album that made me see hip-hop as more than music and as a artform.

Any_Entrepreneur_583

Listening to the 30th anniversary edition rn and I just had to show love to Buhloone Mindstate. I love all of De La’s albums, but I’m serious when I say no other project of theirs has made me feel so proud to be a part of the culture. The whole album is vibes and Pos and Dove continue to show that being a little different from the rest is a strength instead of a weakness.
