My favourite rap song of Cool`s was `I need Love`..I still remember the lyrics. A most comforting song in those young days.

ChadApr 7, 2009

I love his acting over his music. I respect him for being around as long as he has though, especially since he was one of the first people to really spark the RAP movement.
