2pac -- Holler If Ya Hear Me I always thought Death Around The Corner and Souljah's Story from Pac's earlier albums were gems that the later Death Row Pac fans slept on. Other underrated: Bird in the Hand-Ice Cube/Death Certificate Mass Appeal-Gangstarr When They Reminisce-Pete Rock & CL Smooth "Old man's gotta be the old man. Fish has got to be the fish." | |

Man, his rhymes and Primo's beats were a powerful combo. I'll also add Primo's beats for Group Home's debut, Living Proof. Other than "Serious Rap S---," the rhymes were terrible, but the beats were as good as they get from Premier. Good night, sweet Prince | 7 June 1958 - 21 April 2016
