"God forgive for my brash delivery" - Jay-Z
A former bouncer at punk clubs, Just-Ice was the first of the New York rappers to embrace gangsta rap. The self proclaimed "Original Gangster of Hip-Hop" ushered in what would be one of the earliest marriages of Reggae and Rap along with close affiliates Krs-One and Boogie Down Productions. Sir Vicious was a mix of rugged and raw with detailed and layered story telling. With Kurtis Mantronik on the 808 and Davy DMX on human beatbox duty, Just-Ice carved out his own niche in Hip-Hop that hasn't been tarnished. If your or fan of Just-Ice, this long awaited interview should be enlightening as well as entertaining. Shout out the folks at Unkut, peep the convo here
