" Nuff Respect Due "

The first time I went to " Project Blowed " it wasn't even called " Project Blowed " yet, it was known as the " Good Life " cafe back then...Even after the doors closed, fools would cipher up 100- 150 deep in the parking lot...You could catch " Volume 10 " out there.." Pharcyde ", " Acey " , " Cut Chemist " and all types of cats screaming ill, fast, off the dome type of rhymes..

If you couldn't freestyle back then you would get fucking clowned. Your boy "Fat Joe" even got booed off the stage when he tried to roll up in there with some " One two buckle my shoe " type of rhymes ( Anybody out there remember that shit ).You had to be quick witted, stylish, and explosive or you were going to get victimized.

Things have changed over the years but that initial " Good Life " vibe can still be found at " Project Blowed "...If your interested in getting a more in- depth glimpse into this West Coast Hip Hop institution, you can cop the book HERE
