Any rapper that ever rocked a mask (M.F.Doom), rapped in a high pitched nasal voice (B-Real, Kool Keith), or approached Hip Hop from a off-kilter, bugged out standpoint, owes a tremendous debt to the man known as, "Rammellzee"...
After Guru passed away I told myself that I was done with R.I.P. post, but I would be a fool to not take time out to salute someone who was involved in my favorite Hip Hop movie of all time, "Wild Style"...
Gone but not forgotten....R.I.P. Rammellzee 1960-2010..
And for those unfamiliar with his work- You seriously need to check out this fifty minute interview with Rammellzee on "Uncommon Radio"...WOW.......Props to Fresh Paint for the link...

and not to mention what he brought to the art of letters, "panzerism": letters that had armor and defensive postures... dude was on another level. Rest In Power playa!
ReplyDeleteNO QUESTION....
