Some rappers got the spotlight, others got forgotten. In this episode of Grown Man Bars, Chad and BA pull up the barber chairs to salute the underrated MCs of the 80s and 90s — the ones who had bars, impact, and style, but never got their flowers.
We’re talking AZ, MC Ren, K-Solo, Vin Rock, Fife Dawg, Masta Ace, Craig G, Lord Finesse, Grand Puba, Mr. Cheeks, Young Bleed, and more. These are the voices that defined the golden era from the shadows.
If you grew up with the tapes, this one’s for you. If you didn’t, consider this a history lesson in slept-on greatness.
