Oh, no doubt, I got GM flash greatest hits metal cassette in my stereo right now.

I just forgot to mention that's all. I got ALL those great electric funk oldies, trust me. cassettes were my best friend, I'm the only guy I know with a cassette player in his ride. I don't have a cd player, I prefer it that way.

Rza - 36Chambers
Extra P - Breaking Atoms, Illmatic
Dre - Chronic
Ultramagnetic MC's - Crirical Beatdown
Pete Rock - Main Ingredient
Beatminerz - Enta Da Stage
Prince Paul - De La Soul Is Dead

Jus to name a few....
