I'll never forget when Will Smith had "Arrest the President" playing in his room during the first season of The Fresh Prince of Bel Air... he would make odes to hip hop every now and then on that show.

[@r.a.h.hrealauthentichiphop147]

Tragedy is extremely over looked and under appreciated! Intelligent Hoodlum is one of my favorite albums of all time! Much respect

[@chuckchillout618]

I extremely concur.. definitely doesn't get tha appreciation he deserves. Tha 3 albums Against All Odds Still Reportin' Thug Matrix are top tier bodies of work to tha point whr I can't even say which ones are better. Consistently solid. Got me through a lot. Salute that man

TRAG SUCKS

[@NdosiMagaye]

Tragedy told Conway The Machine he not a legend yet to his face 😂😂 ...nigga brutality honest

[@KD_SWAGGER]

Tragedy is a lyricist, storyteller and a prophet. He's definitely one of the most underrated rappers ever I feel. Nothing like great Hip Hop stories told in the barbershop!

[@billionairenow81]

Factz..I'm still pumping " Still Reporting". Daily

[@germwarfare5707]

Against all odds is a certified classic. 💯

[@queens2nd2none]

Never clicked nothin so fast... been waiting on this Queens in the building 🙌🏾 *Edit* Math is a great interviewer and host, he was born to engage with all these amazing personalities and to see him geek out about some of these stories and tales I've only heard touched in vaguely on wax... Songs by Prodigy and Nas and Trag and others... For Math to know of them and ask for more insight, he definitely spoke for the fans and asked a lot of questions I didn't even think of. Wish he had asked about Se'Kou, N'eka, "the Sam Sneed version", the Nore and Tragedy beef, I wanted to hear Tragedy talk about his 3rd verse of Bloodtype, it's never been heard but he recorded it and faded the track... That was a question you gotta ask even if Tragedy dodges it, what was on that third verse? In any case, great interview and I hope both these dudes come back individually. Get Jungle and Big Noyd up here too. Who has more Mobb stories than Noyd? Who has more insight to Nas than his brother. Jungle is the Showout of hip hop. If Nas is Hitman Jungle was Showout in the hood... Gotta get Jung on

The Tupac& Nas story is crazy. Both sides are basically saying the same thing but 1 side is always trying to make it seem like they were the ones on top in the situation

Snoop kept it 💯 and said Nas and them Queens niggas had the drop on them. No one wants to believe cause Nas and these nights been real quite about it for decades now. Real facts. About time we hear the truth from nights that we’re there that know they could got PAC and them but kept it 💯 that they would have gotten hit too.

"shoulda learned what love is before we learned what a thug is , now we leave our seeds to be raised by they mothers ! " tragedy definitely is top 5 most underrated in NY history

Super Dope. God Bless all these brothas‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

[@BlkOMNI]

We have to address things and not sweep it under the rug... I see most are not hearing the reasoning behind Tragedy's passion. Largely this is due to the love we have for P (rip). Clarification is not hate.

Tek from Smith N Wesson on the next Lexington. Master Ace and Craig G riding down Fulton street in Bed Stuy.
