Richie Cunning – Salute

@RichieCunning laced us with this dope tribute a minute ago, and we almost slept on it! Good thing we remembered cuz this thang is ILL! Richie says:

Stepping to a classic is not a task that any emcee should take lightly. For just that reason, it isn’t something that I have done very many times in my career. About a month ago, I was shooting pool in my neighborhood dive and “Juice (Know The Ledge)” came on the jukebox. I hadn’t heard it in a while, and the fact that it was sandwiched into a playlist of current popular rap songs made it hit me like a suckerpunch to the gut. Rakim’s flow is simply undeniable. The chops, the swing, the delivery, the tone… emcees just don’t (or can’t) rap like that anymore. I took a shot at it. Check it out. I hope you enjoy my salute to the God, Rakim Allah.
