ju> The Roots: Organix (Remedy)
ju> This one I bought because of the recommendations from the list.

ju> jazz, I mean, this one truly rocks the block in every possible
ju> manner. By the way, who is the female MC in The Session?
guessing here, but maybe bahamadia?
ju> Midfield General: Devil In Sports Casual (Skint)
