    I'm not into Rap at all, can't stand it, but I really admire the work you're doing here D, Original, Classy, Sensitive and Powerful.

    I respect that for sure. Journey well sir,

    D, i love these vids, so different from the generic interview. I think it's cool you take them or should i say they take you to a more personal environment outside the studio or something. Also the fact that you edit out your speech puts all the focus on them, which so many interviewers who only want exposure for themselves would never do. you clearly love hip-hop.

    I've only scratched the surface of hip-hop in my own discovery of music so watching these vids lets me delve a little deeper into a world which sometimes seems so alien to me.

    keep up the good work man. any chance of a cyne interview? that would be amazing!

    These are great, D-Nice - if you read your comments... is it possible at the end to ask each rapper to tell in one or two sentences what they are doing now? Would be great to know if they are business owners, still in the music biz, bankers, etc?

    this one is great because he is speaking on his childhood and how great it was regardless of his living conditions. hip-hop in its truest form a reflection of the minds of the black youth...in my opinion.
