Nice pics man, he looks really healthy there too 
Truly missed bro, Kimbo stands alone. Still got Monkey bars and Jesus Price Supastar sealed on wax.
I was blessed to DJ at Hip Hip Kemp in the Czech Republic which was a 4 day all Hip hop festival and the biggest in Europe at the time… the whole Boot Camp click performed on the Saturday night, I’ll remember that for a long time.
Wouldn’t expect any less from the brokest rapper you know

The album gets better every listen, Mr slow flow is an unsung hero in my books. Smoked him out my home-grown OG Kush 18 in the Ryme Sayers tour bus when he was in Norway. He tracked me down after the show while I was out waiting for a taxi for another sesh, I obviously obliged.

That is definitely one for the books,LEGENDARY! I only wish I could have joined overseas even once. I met a few of the click at black moon /smiff n Wessun album parties and then once when a few traveled with P. My fondest memories are of him and I just kicking back blazing talking about our kids/fam. Gave me so much good, wise advice I’ll never forget. I do remember in that pic him saying he’d been sick for a couple weeks and couldn’t wait to just sleep. Definitely didn’t notice any difference other than that though. God I miss that man!

Hold on to those memories for ever mate, I’m sure you will. That’s all time you got on a friend level with such a legendary human.
Nice bro, Da Shinin’ is top 10 hip hop albums of all time imo and Enta Da Stage isn’t far off too.
That time probably the best producer in the game Uncle Al the chemist and Madlib’s bro Oh No came back to the crib for some after show refreshments(some homegrown tree) after their Gangrene set. Sent them off with a nice handful to sort them out… Good times!

Classic. That’s dope that you have it on vinyl.
That’s a dope video too. Those locations are all around bayview and the outskirts of the mission, you rarely see those parts of the city on film.

I love how all the bay area artists are completely unique. It’s not just one style.
I think that’s why the real bay artists never make it into the mainstream. they can’t just be generalized and categorized.
I think the thing that all bay area rap has in common is that it is deeply political, and the lyrics are always cerebral and full of layered meanings. It’s always psychedelic. It usually doesn’t rhyme as obviously, and the bars can have any number of syllables (like e40 going from slo-mo to rapid fire).
The beats can be anything, but it has to be psychedelic, provocative, or evocative.
I don’t think many people realize that the generation of bay area rappers from the 90s and 00’s are literally the sons and daughters of the black panther movement.
funk came out of oakland in the 60s and 70s at the height of the panther movement. it was always deeply political. even after parliament and bootsy and tower of power went mainstream their messages were still political (sexual liberation, freedom, use of psychedelics).
Bay area hip hop evolved directly from funk, and people have been “rapping” to jazz in the bay area in juke joints and social clubs since the 30’s. That’s why it’s so different than east coast hip hop which came purely from the b-boys and crate diggers. Bay area musicians were influenced by hip hop and just folded it in to the local traditions.
These are the same messages in mac dre’s music. Thizz was all about sexual liberation, freedom, and use of psychedelics, cannabis, and other mind expanding substances.
hyphy was the modern expression of the same radical intellectual freedom of expression and party culture as the radical intellectuals that were called “hippies” by the mainstream culture. 2006 was our modern “Summer of Love” thanks to Keak da Sneak’s hyphy movement and sideshow / street takeover party culture.

Exactly bro, Paris would have to be one of the best example of this. Revolutionary music 
I’m sure you’ve seen it already but a must watch, the scene stands alone. Del for example would have had a hard time in the early 90’s NY scene but in the Bay area he was/is the perfect fit.
I went to the Hyro block party a few years back after coming off a long season on the hill, good day out

93 Til Infinity is LEGENDARY, gotta be top 10 for me tbh because it was so different and influential to, well the whole damn scene, WORLDWIDE. Took a little bit but when it started truly Rollin it was recognized as NICE by EVERYONE, even the cats that hated everyone but those in their direct circle liked something or ALL of 93 Til. Man, we were so blessed to have lived out the golden age of hip hop and the ENTIRE culture. People have no idea the way things were, an absolutely wonderful time to be alive that I shall cherish until my last breath and beyond, and the people I was blessed to meet and become friends with made it all that more special and I’m certain you feel the same fam. Got me all nostalgic over here in the am
