Beautiful and sad all at once. If only they'd included more candid shots of the crew.

I read the title as "The Gordon Gano of Hip-Hop" and was very disappointed after the jump.

This is a pretty good oral history. I was pleased at some of the people included (Cheo H. Coker, word?), and glad to hear a guy who once named an album 'We Invented the Remix' give props to cats like Brucie B and Ron G.

I actually read the title as "The Gary Gnu of Hip Hop" and was very disappointed as well.
