One of the best to ever hold a mic . Didn’t fell off or lose that original flavor like a lot of these stale tv dinner mc`s .

Big ups to GD I.U. I personally thought that he had one of the best tracks off marco polo’s the newport authority mixtape, I dunno how you do it Robbie, but you get all these rap vets to say the funniest shit. Probably not too hard with GD I.U. though, just follow dude on twitter, he says some hilarious shit. props for the interview.

Dopeness Robbie, another great interview with a vet and more impressive posting, you have been cold killing it lately man

First album is an all time fave and the second definitely had some bangers, the third one was decent.

Lol

You got any good drinking stories?

Just last night I got twisted and shit after the wake. I ain’t even know I did this shit, but my man told me I walked up to this bitch and told her, ‘I remember I fucked you!’ But my wife was right there! [laughs] My wife said, ‘Take this motherfucker home before I kill him!’

“my brother had baseball bats – we was gonna go fuck-up the fake Biz Markie that was gonna meet me at Blimpy’s!”

sick shit. classic first album; one of the few albums that I could play from begining to end. to me lead pipe was a big disapointment mainly because of the voice change. his lyrics were still sharp just didnt like the flow. still one of my favorite rappers!
