    Second Comment: Mannie Fresh defintley does not recieve enough credit or recognition for his contribution for literally masterminding the sound of Cash Money and hip hop outta NOLA. He has to be the sickest on an 808 drum machine. Hell, his intros on CMR albums used to be ridiculous.

    Thank you for presenting so many great memories. I lived a few blocks from the St Bernard projects many years. The Bynum brothers had a grocery and drug store across from the projects. It was a very important shop where we could get our groceries and prescriptions. The Circle Food store was a fairly long bus ride away but we went there all the time too, when time allowed. Unfortunately all that was destroyed with Katrina. Also all the schools I went to like Phillips Elem and Phillips Junior High were destroyed. It would be great if you could include videos or pictures of all this as well. It seems so much is gone forever.
