The INI album "The Life I Live" is 25 yrs old this year...it was constructed during the year of 1995...prepping for a 1996 release. Instead, we only released a single...but the rest of the music got to the people...the album was heard...and appreciated🙏🏾 25 yrs...wow!🎶🎧🎤💪🏾💣🖤
I work as a behavior coach at a K- 8 school. One of the students asked to speak to me in a breakout room (Zoom lingo😄). When we got in the room, he said he wanted to thank me for coming 2 his class everyday. He said he likes our exchanges in the morning. This is what it's worth.
I was at Loud Records one day in their "sound room" (for lack of a better term) playing "Wonderlust" by Rob-O and the brother...I mean KING in the picture below asked: "Yo, that's you?" Me: "Nah that's my boy Rob-O...I made the beat." Him: "That's dope." Long Live🙏🏾

Listening to "Nobody Beats The Biz"...on my way to snapping my doggone NECK!! SO FUNKY! The sample...the 808...the funk on the scratches...Biz's flow...sheesh!!🎤🎧🔊🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👑👑💯
The scratches on "Step Up (Time) by InI are SAMPLES of Pete scratching...he trigger sampled himself (with the SP1200) scratching and placed them on the beat...don't know why...but he did it. It was our shout to Preemo too!
Hev was the type that would come in my Mom's house and sing to her like this...just to make her laugh and feel good...I really miss shit like that.🙏🏾
