      @WAFFEN COLLIDER "Racist" is an almost meaningless term these days, just like the words "fascist" and "Nazi" have been neutered by overuse in inappropriate situations.
      To some Leftist radicals, everyone Right of Chairman Mao is a "Nazi" or a "fascist".

After Griff was forced out of Public Enemy he got a solo deal with Uncle Luke and the result was an album from Professor Griff & The Last Asiatic Disciples.

    It's funny, Professor Griff said himself that when he was signed to make this album, he was no rapper, but the check was too big to say no. For a guy that was not a rapper before this joint dropped, he was not too bad. I guess anger and the need to succeed in the face of the group that fired you is strong enough to produce a good album!

      Red Sunshine I think he is way more than a good speaker. He is a very intelligent man and that is really what carries one across no matter how well they can speak. I think his intelligence, coupled with his need to do better after he was fired, was motivation enough to do well. But yes, it does help at he can speak well.
