Sadly I cannot grow a full beard. Can't remember if Enkidu had a beard or not, doesn't matter he didn't outrun the SUN!

I would say Tech N9ne and all of the Strange Music label kicks the **** out of Tupac and BIG. IMO, of course.

Quick, name the artist and the album on which the song "Dirty South" actually appears.

I like where this kaftan discussion is going, though.
