You are in for a treat, my friend.

There's a whole story to his career, and how he got screwed, and why he left the industry.

But the music he created on those three albums is really something special. I got to see him live in San Francisco back when he was touring for his first album "Hell With The Lid Off" and had just started playing some stuff from his new album, "Welcome to my Dream". Just him and DJ Zero on the stage, weaving these stories and melodies...

Tone Loc had just come out with "Funky Cold Medina".

Public Enemy was telling everyone to "Fight the Power".

Primus was "Sailing the Seas of Cheese".

And Rage Against The Machine hadn't released an album yet.

It was one hell of a time for music...
