First time I ever saw Tupac, he was in eighth grade. I seen this kid that had this shirt with the old school iron-on letters, "MC New York." And he was rhyming. All these people was around him -- even back then. We was adversaries at first, but we formed a crew. Born Busy and shit, MC New York, DJ Plain Terror, Ace Rocker, and my man D on the beat box. Taking mad peoples out--the invincibles. Then we started writing little rhymes for Jada [Pinkett]. Jada was rhyming a little bit too. Don't sleep.
