HIP HOP TWOSDAYS: EDO.G

Going back to Boston for this one.  Ed O.G. aka Edo.G has been a staple in "The Bean" for a long minute now and in some circles is considered a living legend.  He came out with "Like Of A Kid In The Ghetto" back in 1991 which produced a couple of classics in "Be A Father To Your Child" and "Got To Have It". This right here is an album track which hilariously depicts the life of a single man "trying to make it with the ladies  in the '90's" over top the same slick ass sample Gang Starr used in "Love Sick".

ED O.G. - GOTTA HAVE MONEY

After that first album Ed O.G. became Edo.G and took a far more considerably underground approach from there on out.  He collaborated with DJ Premier and did an entire album with Pete Rock.

I remember hearing a bunch of his tracks killing it on the local 88.9 @ Night on WERS while chillin' in my room reading The Source.  Ahhh the glory days.
