    This guy is my favorite MC of all time, hands down. Brilliant producer too.

    One of the most criminally underrated MC's EVER. A few guys with Atoms Fam were so fucking unbelievably good, but never got the attention they deserved. Cryptic One, Windnbreeze, Alaska... Those cats are some of the best rappers to ever spit.

    Apocalypse Zone is sick, Life After is even sickr, and Intricate Schemes is one of Blueprint's best beats. the whole album is dope, though
