EP. 4-Kool G Rap Poison (1988)

For anyone who is an attentive listener and has a grasp of understanding the merits of lyricism, it should be clear that Kool G Rap is one of the most skilled rhyme writers of all time. His road to this level of praise was hinted at ever since his debut in 1986, but “Poison” (‘88) was truly a moment that marked his ascension to that prestigious level as inevitable. This episode talks about the quick rise to the ranks of the MC elite, starting with his debut in 1986, and making a notable statement with his debut album, Road To The Riches (‘89)
