This episode the pod takes a look at the humble, and most of the time forgotten, beginnings of some Rap's most notable artists (as well as a few more personal choices). Whether it be dug up mixtapes, half lost projects or just things no one knows about the gang leaves no stone unturned to laugh at bad covers, rusty rap lyricism and heart on the sleeve influences as we take a look into the Hip Hop's "Baby Pictures".  

Intro Music: Junclassic - "Borrowed Time (Instrumental)" 

Outro Music: Kankick - "Stagnated Pace"
