KRS-One & Buckshot|Survival Skills
September 17, 2009 by Saule Wright · 24 Comments

Typically, when we think of Pro Black, prideful, conscious rap, KRS-One tends to triumphantly erupt from our souls as the poster child and is highly regarded as a top 5 emcee…probably more like top 3. It doesn’t take much effort or digging to get into a Read more
