dc loves dilla.

nas.. “y’all my n****’s”

pac div live in dc!

where did that come from??? “good afternoon.”

So…    after listening to this a while back, I became stuck. The Cool Kids are one of my (Bee) favorite rap groups of all time cause they are constantly giving us gems to listen to and pretty much do this Hip-Hop *ish* a service with thier switch-hitter rhyme styles and tid-bits of knowledge they drop…   but this confused things for me and Prints. Listen for yourself and pay attention at about 1:36….

Now…   Me and Prints are wondering, “where did that come from?”  first Hov and Ross; now them???   we gotta know…
