CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: Because genius continuously teeters on the edge of insanity, we, as observers, are often confounded by the choices that great artists make. As an artist myself, I fully understand and appreciate this fact.
In this case, the great artist is Hip Hop producer par excellence DJ Premier and the curious quiz that's fucked with his fans for a minute is why he would ever give so many amazing tracks to such painfully untalented rappers as Lil Dap and Malachi The Nutcracker (NOTE: I will give Malachi credit for the line "swim in big bucks like Scrooge McDuck" and for naming himself "The Nutcracker" years before the drink got poppin' in the hood) collectively known as Group Home.
On the real, these Group Home guys have arguably the highest concentration of Grade-A Primo beats ever assembled for 1 album on their 1995 debut "Livin' Proof". I always felt where Group Home was coming from, their whole movement was pure grimey Brooklyn @ it's best (I mean, look @ this video), but everybody knows that DJ Premier made this album. So, yeah, "Supa Star" is a classic joint. I wonder why though? LOL. Holla @ ya boy in BK!
