So, to be two years older than what we consider to be the birth of hip-hop, and to grow up with it like a sibling, is a fortunate feeling because I got to witness a lot of firsts.

The '95 Source Awards was a funeral in hiphop's history, and I don't say that in hindsight. I knew it walking into the Paramount Theatre in New York City on Aug. 3, 1995, and I knew it running away. And when I say running, I'm not exaggerating. I was running for my life-it felt like the creative version of Apocalypse Now.
