"I was raised like a Muslim, praying to the east, nature of my life relates rhymes I release" One of the sickest opening lines I've heard.

Loving the Maceo Parker sample, I saw Guru twice in Manchester, UK when I was a student. Saw Maceo too. Loads of Jazz musicians came through the city when I was there, McCoy Tyner, Roy Ayers, Courtney Pine, Donald Byrd - he signed a Red Garland LP he played on for me at a Jazzmatazz gig. I used to play drums in a Jazz club where local rappers would join in with Jazz musicians. The 90s were good times for live music. RIP Keith Elam. Respect to DJ Premier. Peace from south Wales.
