I was just thinking about a ton of Stretch and Bobbito era rappers who were so fucking dope but never seemed to make it out of the gates with their careers. Dudes like Tony Bones, puppets of chaos, smoke squad, Serge, Genesis and legion of d.u.m.e.
I remember hearing their demos or 12" or just them up in the studio freestyling and assuming they were the next big thing. There was a glut of talent back then that mever got a good chance for whatever reason and it's a shame.
