[@stevekournianos6186]

For real, when they said hittin up your city with the Alkaholiks sticker, they meant it. In Boston in 1994 these stickers were everywhere, and a head shop had a stack of them, so I geabbed the stack and splattered that shit everywhere. Real hip hop that respected the old school. New York or Cali didnt matter. That’s why these heads were asked to be on Soundbombing. True MCees.

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23) When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. (Mark 2:17) For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. (2 Corinthians 7:10) I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. (Luke 13:5)
