Grits Sandwiches for Breakfast

A raw snapshot of 1990 Detroit hip-hop. Brash, sample-heavy boom bap from a teenager years before he became a rap-rock stadium fixture.

Before the cowboy hats and pyrotechnics, he was just a kid from Detroit with a sampler and a lot of nerve.

A brash and hungry display of youthful ego and street-level ambition.
