“When I’m fiending for a microphone, I’m the microphone fiend
After twelve, I’m worse than a Gremlin
Feed me Hip hop and I start trembling
The thrill of suspense is intense, you’re horrified
But this ain’t the cinemas of ‘Tales From the Dark Side’” —Eric B & Rakim “Microphone Fiend”

“It’s been a long time, I shouldn’t have left you
Without a strong rhyme to step to
Think of how many weak shows you slept through
Time’s up, I’m sorry I kept you” —Eric B & Rakim “I Know You Got Soul”

“First of all, I start by talking to them about the history of hip-hop, because it’s important for them to know that Dilla didn’t just fall out of the sky. That’s when I talk about Paul C, Large Professor, Pete Rock, Kool Herc, Herbie Luv Bug, Afrika Bambaataa, and all that stuff. Then we get in to the Dilla stuff.”

“Dilla’s like that bridge between those two worlds that should be communicating more, but for some reason prior to what he did weren’t really. And those two worlds were the programming musicians, and the more traditional instrumentalist musicians.”
—Brian “Raydar” Ellis
