I’ve discussed D-Nice once or twice around here. (Maybe even three times.)
Well, the former Boogie Down Productions member and solo rap artist (now a photographer) is branching out with a YouTube series called D-Nice Presents: True Hip-Hop Stories. The latest installment of the relatively new series features a short sit-down interview with Dres of Black Sheep, who talks about the making of the classic joint The Choice Is Yours and how the ever-present third verse (“Engine, engine number 9”) came about. I mean, how classic is this song? Consider the lyric: “And, pass the paper, cross the fader / Black Sheep getting played, like a Sony in a beta.”
