[@vanessacastillejo4274]

Very good, keep on guys. Love this shows. Peace from Spain

[@mcdh8592]

I love that this looks like it was filmed in a hotel.

[@GoodxJ]

AFRO picked some absolute classics! Nice.

[@DystopianJoe]

you can get Poison on 12" as an A side, not just B side to Streets of New York, although that is one of their finest moments imo

[@rasmussten1206]

A-F-R-O has incredible taste in his music. For me my favourite albums would be Madvillany, Illmatic, Liquid Swords, Paid in Full, Live and Let Die, Muddy Waters, The Low End Theory, Aquemini, Operation Doomsday and The Marshall Mathers LP in that order. I can relate so much to you guys!

[@LetTheRecordShowTV]

He definitely had a solid series of picks!

[@rasmussten1206]

@@LetTheRecordShowTV I was sewing patches to my jacket and my computer monitor is the only reliable light source and your white screen gave to perfect light combined with your entertaining episode with sine of my favorite artists. Would like to know your guy’s favorite rappers are respectively, ‘cause I don’t think I’ve heard them so far. Any hip hop related top list will do! Love y’all!

[@mikegribanov6105]

i love the concept of this show.. getting away from podcasts about all the drama and bullshit and just talking music

[@MCJustJ420]

Am I the only person who thinks Ace has surpassed everyone in the Juice Crew? G Rap is the only one I think you can make an argument for still being above him. Thats no shade on any of them either, they all amazing. Its just Ace is probably one of the most overlooked Legends in Hip-Hop.

[@TheEdub1]

JustJ420 Ace is the most underrated of all time in my opinion. But I don't think he surpassed Kane or G Rap as mc's. At there best Kane was the greatest could kill u on the mic and on stage (true mc).

[@Blessed2bFresh]

JustJ420 facts..

[@elismith8356]

He has the most dope albums out of all of um.

[@thehypeisreal9824]

why does this look like recorded in 80s

[@valid3383]

Afro make RA look like a doll in the corner. .haha

[@LetTheRecordShowTV]

That was our third episode. Pretty tight in that motel room....haha

[@TrueNomadloco]

12:15 no puffy didn't bring that look it was Tupac with that Versace than puff an Big copied

[@elismith8356]

Hell yeah glad somebody out there know they shit. Versace was beginning Pac to wear there shit. We all know Pac help put on Biggie though letting him open up for him at his shows. Hell they were once homies.

The Guy album is a classic, but “it was too hard for the pop charts” is simply not true. It reached 27 on Billboard 200 and is DOUBLE PLATINUM! It was 34 on year End Billboard 200 chart and number 1 on year end R&B/HipHop Billboard end of year charts. Pop doesn’t always mean bad R.A it’s okay man (I say that as major fan). Many of the illest ever (in every genre have gold/platinum albums). Many also don’t sell a lot at all or who are ILL AF PS GZA Labels was a creative wordplay song using labels. Every Record Label sucks dick wasn’t that. Illest in Wu are Method Man, GZA, INS, Rae & Ghost. Best lyrically/emcees Meth & INS.
