    Watched this ? last night and it brought back mad memories. A few thoughts watching this ? :

    -Damn, now that I think about it, I had NO IDEA what Greg Street and Kizzy Rock looked like. Heard them ? voices my whole childhood.

    -? ? Arnell Starr!!!

    -How that Bonecrusher used to get ? beat the ? up in the club back in the day.

    -etc. etc. etc.

    Pretty much everything they captured was accurate.

    That is true. Competition has been replaced by hate and ignorance. On the other hand, you can't go for any and everything. I was never messing with more than 2 or maybe 3 Atl Trappers. Would not recommend any of this new stuff to someone asking me what to check out from the city.

    that's because all these trap artist are at the forefront like Gucci t.i and 2 chains. I guess people forgot about the music scene from back then

    This was a good show,but much like ATL,it totally ignored us underground artists who been around since back then

    There's a whole other side of the ATL music scene that is pretty much ignored

    Thus you have a ? like me who's been grinding through every era on this doc

    They said nothing about 88.5 Talib shabbaz,Jc,Luda's DJ before Luda popped off,Lyrical Giants,The UN,Bad Blood(My crew),Datbu,Starr,Fort Knox, etc etc.

    They didn't speak on clubs like The warehouse

    I still think it was a great show though,lots of memories

    DJ Toomp who was on there actually signed my ppl Native Nuttz when we were in high school

    It's not like ppl don't know who we are
