After 19 years Rakim Allah is back in Europe again for some shows. Just about every real hip hop head didn’t pass this chance to witness the God MC on stage again. I’ve been blessed to get the chance to talk to the living legend himself after the show. Rakim talks about his music, where he is spiritually at the moment and how he feels about the state of Hip Hop nowadays. (Apologies for the few mic glitches.) Needless to say, loving Hip Hop like I do, this has definitely been amazing to me. Much love to my girl Tinku & to Matthew for making this happen for me.
Those performance clips gives me chills, UGH he will always be the Monument in Hip Hop for me that gave hip hop permission to be educated and still dope.
