Any claims to fame? Working the Skratch Bastid BBQ in Toronto a couple years ago and Nice & Smooth (famous old school hiphop artists) surprised me when I was in the the reefer truck. They said what’s up homie can we grab a couple Paps blue ribbons. I said yes but only if we can shot gun them and I can ask you both some questions on hiphop history. Then after DJ premier signed my Gangstarr tattoo. Best day ever for this little hIp-hop head.
