One of my college room mates and good friends Arien “Knowledge” Young and his friend Ron “Da Vinci” St. Juste formed a hip hop due while we were at Morgan State University. Formerly the Union, the group recently changed their name to UnioNoMics.
They have been making music since 2005, focusing on thought provoking yet fun lyrics. Equally cerebral as they are festive; their music is a breath of fresh air in today’s cotton candy hip hop market.
Our list of 5 classic hip hop videos old and new. The list includes videos from the Native Tongues Posse, Wu-Tang and Def Jux. Please enjoy the videos and leave a comment if you agree or disagree. Did we leave anyone out? Let us know!
His “Killed Dem” line was kind of silly and corny. And the line, “What’s on the tube maybe some boobs…?” is just kind of sub par for Em in my opinion. Still, decent production. Dre doesn’t disappoint.
Whimsical lyrics remind me of some of the stuff from the Slim Shady LP’s sillier songs. Funny story telling as per usual with Em. Some of his lyrical skills seem to be dumbed down slightly. He is still a wordsmith, but not like he was. I feel like he didn’t try hard enough….
