Brother J should always be mentioned when speaking on the top m.c.s of all time highly underrated x clan was always rocking in the walkman this was before cds and smart phones I was in high school at the time class of 89
@ashyelbos I also grew up on X-Clan! I had just graduated from high school (1990) and was a freshman at the University of Arkansas at PIne Bluff (HBCUAPB) when I first heard them as a group. My uncle was a former Black Panther and a DJ from 1970-1987, so I knew about Afrika Bambaataa and grew up on Gil Scott Heron. X-Clan came to UAPB and educated my 18-year old naive self! Still listening to them and loving them 30 years later!
They were way ahead of their time. I remember being a kid, trying to digest everything they were saying, and doing. They represented a strong movement that we lack today. Salute!!
Believe it or not X-Clan movement was so strong it somehow got intertwined party wise and motivational with the Los Angeles based Blood and Crip gang set just like George Clinton with his P-Funk movement. You guys open their eyes eternally to life situations in real time form.
Don't forget Brother J's other group,Dark Sun Riders. They made one album and it was a bonafied indie Hip Hop classic. I always love hearing Bro J and Architect Paradise speak.So much history.

Exactly, look at all the Catholic priest pedophiles, look at all the coaches like Jerry Sandusky etc. the most dysfunctional people on the planet are mutanoid Caucasoids and unfortunately they have influenced many of our melanated brothers to behave in a less than righteous way. ✌🏼

Dark Sun Riders was dope but heavily slept on.

Just because you preach peace & positivity, doesn't mean your not dirty.
for example, religious clerics, politicians, businessman etc.
Wasn't Sonny Carson Brother Js father

Sam I am Christian thats true so true
I agree. Someone is saying that members of X Clan allegedly sexually abused her.
@@miketolliver7062 know Professor X was the son of Sonny Carson
