🎧😌 I can't even begin to tell you the influence Erick Sermon and EPMD had on me since I was 7 years old to my present age of 44. "Brothas On My Jock" featuring Redman is still my favorite track by EPMD. 😌 Erick Sermon's production was so monumental in the late 80s, throughout the 90s, and 2000s. Parrish Smith, K-Solo, Das Efx, Redman, Keith Murray, Jamal, Passion, Xross-Breed, and the late great Hurricane G (🙏🏾😌💓🕊️). Erick Sermon had his hand in some of the ILLEST hip-hop classics ever made! Give that man his 💐's for his contribution to hip-hop!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 🗣️"I HEAR VOICES SAYING THAT'S ERICK SERMON, ERICK SERMON, ERICK SERMON."

@amoonpoint 15 дней назад

Turning 49 this year and grew up in Toronto. Erick if only you understood how angry menand my boys were when EPMD broke up. That anger was just shynofbthe anger when Jordan retired the first time. We literally couldn't understand what was happening. That squad was on top with Das Efx, Redman and K-Solo. That break up was nuts. Business as Usual is probably the moat underrated Hip Hop album of all times. It was flawless. Not a single song was filler. Production was revolutionary. Introduced Redman with some crazy verses and they teamed up with LL on a dope song. Strictly Business and Unfinished Business get the recognition but that third album was absolutely bananas. Salute to EPMD!
