Can we build a time machine and go back to the early 90's on the AVE??! So much to do,so many great times,hip hop,graffiti,40oz,and slice of pizza from La Vals. Sad to say it turned into a ghost town.

boxcar sessions, one of the best albums ever, I wish I could have seen saafir live in his prime

Circa '94,the gymnasium at Clark-Atlanta University,the Method Man-Redman show.I only went because i had nothing else better to do.I'll never forget it:a brotha introduced the next performer as 'cousin Caine' from 'Menace To Society'.Completely unexpected,my favorite emcee at the time(and of all time)came to the stage and ripped in front of a crowd that,by and large,didn't quite know what to think.Saafir stomped across the stage like a giant--no crew,no hypemen--merckin' 'em.

[SUPEROBSCUREBEATS]

as complex as saafirs lyrics are he spits so damn clean & understandable -- fuckin true performer right there.
