What do you know about Black Moon?

I know I posted this somewhere before, but this is my favorite Devin joint. Dre 3000 killed the track.
.

Devin is one of Scarface's guys, they usually do pretty good stuff together. You might like Scarface's "The Fix" album, it has beats by Neptunes and Kanye, and features joints with Nas, Jay-Z, Devin, Faith Evans, Kelly Price and Beanie Siegal....plus it got 5 mics in the source, when first released.

Phife has always been under-rated.

from the same (classic) album:

Spottieottiedopaliscious



the brief Sleepy Brown intro is great, but Andre 3K's verse is one of the most mesmerizing pieces of spoken word poetry I've ever heard, the imagery is vivid and epic...

Yeah, that's a great album. "On My Block" gives me an almost overwhelming urge to sit outside with a brew and blow some pine.


Speaking of Devin, new album drops on the 7th!

Phife likes them brown, yellow, Puerto Rican or Haitian, but he doesn't ever mention black....

I didn't even know he had a new album ready for release.

....I need to get my ear back to the streets, needless to say....when it drops I will get it.

What part of Texas are you from?
