Both are DJs for classic groups; Premier for Gangstarr and Scratch for EPMD.

DJ Premier And Lil' Fame Talk About Black Poet And Tha Blaqprint

Blaq Poet's "Tha Blaqprint" available @ iTunes.

Premier and Lil Fame discuss Fame's contribution to "Tha Blaqprint".

This has got to be the most I've ever heard Fame talk...and I hope he does it more. He did a great job of expressing how he felt about the project.

Fame's rhyming "off the top"...that's what's up!

Bonus:

Blaq Poet ft. Nore - "Hate" mp3

Let's face it, commercial rap hasn't been representing itself well.

Do yourself a favor and get some "boom bap" in your life...it's good for you.

Blaq Poet reminds me of what emceeing is about...no gimmicks...one man...one mic and his rapping skills. He comes from a place where you might have to battle to defend your name, no record label to smooth over the beef.

"Blaq Poet doesn't waste time using his finesse game...he comes to the mic with his power game." - Martin Cameron Smith
