I remember this interview. This is your true calling, D. Seriously, you should compile these and release them for a dvd or a full blown documentary.

D-Nice, I've always respected you as an artist, producer, and DJ, but now I have to add Hip-Hop historian and video producer! Your videos are inspiring and insightful, and I hope you continue to bring it to us like this for years to come!

First time i heard this song and the lyrics from the extended version, i thought YZ was going at BDP, with some of his word play, but that wasn't so. i really liked this song especially the AWB sample.

YZ's parental comments are about as true as truth gets.

And again, D, bless you man, for these videos and all your effort. I'm actually getting inspired to be an active part of hiphop again.

Man D...always been a fan of yours...Now i know why. You are doing something that should have been done a long time ago. It's so many great Hip Hoppers that have a story and no platform but now they do thanks to you. Good work my brother. Continued blessings!!
