Slick Rick-Hey Young World

All hail Rick the Ruler. Slick Rick is undoubtedly one of the greatest story telling lyricist hands down. Ricky Walters was born January 14, 1965 in South Wimbledon, London, England. He moved to the Bronx in 75' where he met Dana Dane and they joined forces to create the Kangol Crew. One of the most commonly unknown things about Slick Rick is "What the hell happened to his Damned eye?". Well just to put your curiosity to rest, Rick was blinded in his right eye as an infant by broken glass (sounds painful). I remember my cousin Antuane aka Rick used to play this album at grandma B's house non stop.

Produx-Black Love

Who said the south couldn't breed real hip hop. Green-Tea Muzik is a Hotlanta based group that consist of Khalid Salaam, Pikhaso, and Rick. GTM brings soul and a love of lyrics back to your ear. This joint was the first single off of the Black Faces album and a banger at that. Hip hop flows through GTM vein and trust me I know because Rick is my big cuz, and he's been concerned with sustenance forever. GTM is preparing to drop their next album Carrot Cake, so be on the look out for that.
