Gang Starr's
album "The Ownerz" (Virgin) has moved their album
release date to early June. This will be their 7th album
& they still have not gone Platinum. Everyone reading
this, make sure you spread the word about their new
album & support their music cause these O.G.'z deserve
to go double platinum as one of the few hip-hop groups
who's been & still in the game after all these years and
have kept their sound the same & not conforming to
whoever else is hittin' music wise! Now that is keepin'
ish real. It's such a great feeling to have these
pioneers, Gang Starr still recognize what I'm
representin' & what my panel of dj's are truly
representin' to this date & that is COLLEGE RADIO not
mixshow. HIP-HOP HOORAY!!!... Big ups to my dawg
