Skillz is MAD underrated. From his hits- ghostwriting- yearly rap ups - and uncle murda diss - easily hip hop legendary legacy. If you dont know, do your hw on him. Respect from the west coast Skillz
I remember when I used to see Skill working at the VCU parking Deck!! It used to hurt me 😮! He used to come to the Vuu campus and rap with us!! Skills was a beast, and the Super friends!! Dope
I remember when I first heard The Nod Factor I was 20 years old. I lost my damn mind. Then found out Skillz was from VA I went bananas. I was like we here. He put the entire state in the mix. Thanks bro for your contribution to hip hop.👊🏾💪🏾🤎
Skillz judged a rap battle I was in... Even though he voted against me, I still argue in his favor when the topic about MC's in my city come up.. RICHMOND MADE IT TO DRINK CHAMPS AGAIN!!!! All because of Skillz! Respect..
" I feel like Large Professor.....PEACE IS NOT THE WORD TO SAY" That Common story and the impersonation was hilarious!!! Skillz is a true wordsmith. He got bars and can tell a story.
@@jackjackrvaglobal365exactly! I'm from Richmond and style wise we dress nothing like people in the south. They just gettin on air forces in da past 10 years. We been on dat. We call em flav's! Dem niggas was still wearing reebok. 😂
@@johnmoore3953 facts 😂 we’re city/country in Richmond. Even the mechanic jumpers and hunting gear was a staple. Seeing hunting gear mainstream is kinda weird. My cousins in New York used to laugh at it. Now it’s trendy to be southern, when Richmond got slack for it.
@jackjackrvaglobal365 other southern states don't even look at us like dem. We are way ahead of dem. We have never had their style at all. I lived in S.C. in 2004 they were still wearing South Pole 🤣
Salute to skillz definitely a legend and opened doors for Va. Im from Va Beach and Norfolk. But lived in Richmond in Fulton on the east end for 8 yrs. Richmond and Tidewater legendary places. Salute to skillz brought from where his first album the first day it came out in 96. A lot of talent in Va!
I literally sat impatiently waiting 4 the end of year wrap up. It was the talk of the new year for months afterwards 😅😮😂 everything he said. VA really had some talent outta VA Mad Skillz, Neptunes/Pharell, Chris Brown, Nicole Ray, Missy & Tim, Magoo, Genuine, Trey Songz D'Angelo, Pusha T/Clipse (honorable mention Teddy Riley)
Mad skillz first album was dope you can’t tell this dude is from Virginia he sounds just like a New Yorker dude can really rap he should have been a superstar

@facenvilleface-n-ville2759 the single Eric B For President dropped in 86, but the album Paid In Full didn't drop until 87... Itz a simple Google search
I remember when Skillz used to come up to the Stretch & Bobbito Show aka 89Tec9. You KNOW it was time to get your cassettes ready to record. He never did a bad show. Him, Lord Finesse and Big L are the best with the metaphors. I STILL have my WKCR 89 TEC 9 tapes with Skillz.
So … I’m from NC and we consider anything above Richmond the north 😂 anything below they country lol!! He needed to come back!! Skillz has stories and yall need have him again!! For sure!! He got good energy too mad respect 👏🏽👏🏽 EFN always want someone to drink tree bark with him 😂😂😂
Salute to skills.... Virginia is in the middle ... So VA is a little bit south and a little bit of the north .. Because of the women in the 757 an 804 we always said it must be something in the water ...

SKILLZ should be honorary guest host from time to time.
Skillz was the man in the streets in the 90's in VA! 757 and 804 knows about him
You jam right we know bout Skillz!!!

I definitely bought that From where? album. Richmond North 23 st all day

Yo, his rapper impersonations are CRAZY!!!!
One of the best interviews on drink champs
His first album was dope af. Some would say it’s a classic
Yooo Mad Skillz got great stories, man's got iconic contributions to the culture
I’ve been waiting on this episode, Skillz first episodes was my favorite ever
the older artist episodes always be the best...they control the interview
Have to say PITBULL was second. Entertaining. Dropped jewels. Didn't hold back.
Dope episode! Skillz is a legendary MC! Y’all need to have JAYO FELONY on the show…another legendary MC…who was born in Virginia.
That BET story was EVERYTHING!!!
The way i love Madskillz forever is just unreal. Much VA love! Respect
" I feel like Large Professor.....PEACE IS NOT THE WORD TO SAY" That Common story and the impersonation was hilarious!!! Skillz is a true wordsmith. He got bars and can tell a story.
Virginia is the south. As a state we claim it! Skillz is that guy! Richmond stand up!
I tell people that VA is both north and south. Example Richmond below is south, Richmond above is North.
Richmond is the dividing line.
@@optionsaregood252 facts! We’re the only southern state with mixed traits. I love it. We’re comfortable in either setting. North or south.
