I used to work with Mad Skillz at the VCU parking deck by Monroe Park where he worked for years even after writing for Aaliyah and getting money. He'd come to work in his red Beamer and Rolex his fam owned it or some shit. Anyhow one day we got to arguing about rap and he was wrong obviously and pulls the race card and started quoting the source mag calling it the rap nigga bible. I gave in bc I was trying to reap the benefits of being on his good side (the college hoes flocked to him). I got fired soon after for smoking a joint at parking deck.

Puffy paid for that Craig Mack quotable. Remember he was putting all his chips behind Mack before Biggie blew up. That dude is an unmarketable type of ugly and puff daddy lol should have know that, imo

I used to hear crazy stories about Skillz parking cars back in the IRC days. And yeah, I'm sure Puffy did pay for that shit. Good call.

I did memorize that Raise It Up verse when I saw that Quotable Of The Month. I was trying to get a verse from Skillz back when I connect to him but that fell thru.

No diss, but this thread reminds me of South Park episodes about Memberberries, lol.

The argument was about the integrity of the source mag just like buying mic ratings. They fucked up so fucking many times it was ridiculous. These are the 5 mic albums that they had to go back and revise bc they didn't get it right the first time:

Breaking Atoms – Main Source
Death Certificate – Ice Cube
The Chronic – Dr. Dre
Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) – Wu-Tang Clan
Ready to Die – The Notorious B.I.G.
The Infamous – Mobb Deep
Only Built 4 Cuban Linx... – Raekwon
2001 – Dr. Dre
Grip It! On That Other Level – Geto Boys
Doggystyle – Snoop Doggy Dogg
The Diary – Scarface
Me Against the World – 2Pac
The Score – The Fugees
Reasonable Doubt – Jay-Z
