We’re diving headfirst into the Tunnel-approved beats and unapologetic rhymes that made this album a minor classic before the new century even had a chance to screw up. It's a no-holds-barred breakdown of why these tracks still bump from Zilla, ALASKA, and Dan O and why "Y2K" might just be the best rap time capsule you didn’t know you needed!
