That's what hip hop was different era's of timeless jams, u liked the music not the life of the rapper....

[@CallMeMicahT]

That’s because it was polished. People were in competition, and it was being created by professionals. Now you can do it in your apartment, all you need is a computer and some downloaded programs from the net. I’ve been making music like that for years, still without running through the labels, the professional aspect of music is gone and therefore 90% of the music is disposable.

Around the mid 90s UA was such very popular slang that it was all too common speech in Atlanta. It was said any and everytime someone or something did the unbelievable and unforgettable. The timing and the way it was said you can't help but feel it. If there where crowds of people, somehow *everyone* knew *exactly* when to it say it. It's crazy!
