An interview with Bassman should be 3+ hours!!! This was too short a lot of the topics are just being skimmed over!

[@inkermanplatoon2210]

Nuff man in the 90’s only go to raves if baseman’s there! The teacher! 🎤

[@jugbirsingh6999]

It’s still like that for me. I’ve booked tickets for sdc valentines ball 2024 as the first flyer had bass on it. After purchasing the tickets they took his name off. Very disappointed

[@mohican161]

@17:00 I used to take my Bassman cassettes to London/ Brixton in the 90’s . No one had heard of him but they’ll be fascinated listening to him laughing at his one liners! No one was like him in London!!

[@maipai4282]

No one was like him. Loved bassman. But what are you trying to say about London mc’s? Not sure what u t trying to say?

90s Bassman was very darrkk. His style was fully different..i raved an listen to him from 93/98, an I can say that every time he came to a rave it was a straight shutdown. Glad i got to experience that era. Big up yourself chop shop podcast an the Teacher Bassman.💯👏🏾👏🏾💥💥👊🏿

Its hard to find the words about how important Bass Man was to the culture in the 90's. The man inspired a generation of mc's & carried Brum on his back !!!! Living legend , for me he's up there with Bob Marley, & Tupac lol He's a GOAT

I was browsing a Birmingham Subreddit the other day. There was a thread posing the question "what does Birmingham need?" Suggestions included a larger Botanical Gardens, an underground transport system and increased investment in the arts. One of the highest rated responses, though, was as follows: "A 300 ft statue of Bassman, the finger of which can be used as a visual reference point for the surrounding areas" Discuss.

[@leeoreilly6797]

​@@rgtriple3Maybe? I just love the thought of groups of international tourists traversing the city centre, pointing towards the finger every now and then, helping them find their way.

[@frikshun_]

If Bassman would have made a record in the 90’s like how General Levi and UK Apache did he would probably be a millionaire now.

[@jaycostewart8]

He did. Mickey finn an Bass had a dub plate called the bass too dark. 95 rinse out. Classic legendary riddem 💯👏🏾👏🏾
