My father took me to the mall to buy this cassette. He waited in the car while I ran in and bought it. We went home and I listened to it over & over again, and that day, my father told me that rap was "just a trend, and like disco, it would die out in a few years."

It's funny. In retrospect, my father was usually right about everything, but unfortunately he wasn't right about this.

If your only rap knowledge comes from D-12, 50 Cent or Eminem, you really need to do some serious searching for some of the old stuff, and Raising Hell would be a pretty good place to start.
