You want legend talk? Like true “foundational hip-hop” talk?
We got you. Welcome Pete Rock to the People’s Party. The conversation starts hot and doesn’t let up. It’s all about Pete and CL Smooth, true stories of rap’s first era, love for vintage crews like Heavy D and the Boyz, and tales from Pete’s many incredible collaborations. 
This is the gem for the true hip-hop heads. Those who want to know the pieces of the puzzle that are foundational to the culture itself. Those who want to sit at the feet of one of the culture’s grand masters. 
If that’s you… well, it shouldn’t take much convincing.
