@@bolder2009 well I guess it’s personal preference because I like them both & I remember back around 1991 on a trip to NewYork city to visit my aunt we was going through the holland tunnel & out of nowhere all you could hear was this jeep pumping Chinese arithmetic…my brother & I was like oh snap that’s Eric B & Rakim…it’s the perfect backdrop for a movie scene in the ghetto littered with graffiti & trash.

My cousin Universal said to me the summer before it dropped said yo you wanna hear Rakim's song? im like Rakim got a song the brother my man Ramel introduced me to at the parking lot (Wyandanch heads know what I'm talking about) then came that whistle from my Melody. I stepped out his house to go home an a car turns the corner and check out my Melody was playing. Here's something funny he never called me by my name he always said homeboy I don't know if he did it because my first name was hard to pronounce And he said i'm just gonna call him homeboy or he just forgot it, But he never showed me any disrespect espect. That's one thing I could say about Rakim . He was never disrespectful man to anybody and he was always respected in my presence

Denying the smaller creators of clothing in order to just push the big brand didn’t help the culture. It helped Starter. Support more business owners. The Mom and Pop shops. Y’all might of missed the next Karl K and stopped a business that could’ve grown with your influence.
