Last Days Of Humanity - Hymns of Indigestible Suppuration

 

[calveless wonder]

it's all about the underground man. there are still skilled MC's out there, they are just tougher to find.

yeah, but it's sad....because before the underground didn't really exist...good music was just good music.The crap you hear now would have NEVER survived a demo let alone be played on the radio in the late 80's to mid 90's.
I'd say even up until 1999 or so. All the good MC's still had major precense. Now it seems like they're just fading in the background
