Yeah.... pharcyde was alright ....
back then when i first , first started liking hip hop....
I think common, souls of mischief , brand nube, fushnikas...and many more were way better than pharcyde....
I had no idea who fatlip was ... i seen im walkin in the hall and sm9oked a blunt with him when my neighbors had a kick back...
They told me who he was after, i would have never none.....
Speakin on cats that i met or seen live...
One cat they really slept on was decalime ...aka dudley perkins...
When i was in colllege this girl i used to hollar at took me to some underground shows....
I never seen a cat move the crowd and have so much soul like he did..
His music is hard sometimes to listen too... hes much better live...
Madlib gave hiom the craziest tracks.....
Check it out.....
You might need a blunt or some shrooms too feel the dude ...hes on some other ish....

Rain come down, rain come down
Rain come down, rain come down
I see unnecessary death, I see life just gone away
I see souls out of control, I see the earth's pain, I feel the earth's pain
I see the powers of manipulation and I pass away
I see the sleep walkers who walks asleep doing it again
I watch how they do the music, I watch how they do the children
I see wars, I see famine, I see pestilence
I see disease, break, incest, racism, I see these things
I seen what the lack of knowledge can do to a civilization
I've seen what laziness can do to a civilization, lazy people
When you don't stand up for your own
Go ahead and keep beating around the bush, beating around the bush
I see with my own blue eyes also and take care for what I see
Believe me I've seen a lot, I participated in wars
I've seen so many, so many things
With the help of us could have been set right
Don't you wanna go to the moon also
Don't you wanna enhance your intelligence
Don't you wanna stand up for your own
Don't you wanna see with your own two eyes
Only you can lift you up, by the will of God
The powers that be, the energy within your soul
I hang on the edge of this universe, singing off key
Talking too loud and bracing myself to cushion the fall
I shall tumble into deep space never in this former with this feeling
To return to earth, it is not tragic
I shall spound to the black hole losing scared limbs
Internal organs, severing my naked soul
That in the next galaxy with only my essence embracing myself
As I fall into the ill minded mode
