I put him in a category with Ghostface, and A.G. He's an eerilly articulate cat who fully embraces topics dealing with street life, foul bitches, societal flaws, and the distinctions between real men, and posing little boys. He's a behemoth in the booth!"When asked to describe the "Golden Brown sound", the outspoken ON&ON replies... "All the breaks and samples you wish you had in your crate, original beats that make your neck snap off, and everything you mc's wished you could say.
Park benches, chicken wings, Menthol cigarrettes, and Hennessy.
Supportive black male role models, community unity, and self preservation. Keeping your eyes on the prize.
Asking shorty, "What's really special?"
Rockin.
We are Golden Brown. We got you."
