Despite having a multi-billion-dollar net worth, you decided to stop paying artists for songs with less than 1,000 streams (months before giving Joe Rogan $250,000,000). So I made a playlist of 300+ great songs with less than 1,000 streams to give them more visibility and plays.
It probably doesn’t really matter in the grand scheme of things but I think the stuff I did with @1000spins was pretty cool.

Hip-Hop's first Super Producer without a doubt.
I did an episode of @OnTheGrooveLine covering Larry Smith's legacy:

About twice the length of the original and absolutely sublime.

Ate some fries from Arizona Pizza Company today and they were the least seasoned fries I’ve ever eaten. Couldn’t even taste any salt. It was surreal.

Some of my favorite pieces I've ever written was as a staff editor at VIBE. I came in a bit after the OGs. But yeah, that era for music journalism/feature reporting was magical as a youngin' coming up in the game....

SMK actually did work with Da Bassment just on some lesser-known stuff. The crazy connection is that Static, Smokey & Black were already fans of that Indo G & Lil Blunt tape & played it for Missy. Then SMK comes around and says, “Y’all know I produced that?” Crazy story 😂🔥

At the time K-Def's 90s production work was going through a bit of a rediscovery renaissance on the nerdy rap forums I was frequenting, because it was part of the flood of more obscure 90s rap that became available through file sharing. So anything he did drew a lot of attention.

Little known fact. Timbaland & Magoo got that flow from Indo G & Lil Blunt. The producer SMK said it in an interview

We all remember the era when the acapellas for this album starting floating and producers started doing their own bootleg versions. I will always go up for Von Pea's version of "Ignorant Sh*t." It's flawless.

I think my mom and dad would agree that this is their favorite album. Both of them owned this 1983 Beverly Glen issue with the posh OG cover, before Elektra Records reissued it with the Giving You the Best That I Got-era cover.
