If you don't have D-Nice's journal on your blog roll, then smack yourself. And if you don't know who D-Nice is -- in regards to his eponymous rap song -- please jump out the window.

But I digress . . . 

I'm here to talk about D-Nice and his fantastic online series, True Hip-Hop Stories.

In his clips, D-Nice steps behind the camera and let old-school rap pioneers detail how classic songs were made. He has already interviewed Dres from Black Sheep, rapper Dana Dane, and Juice Crew alum Masta Ace. 

The two most interesting videos that I have been watching repeatedly is the one by YZ (of "Thinking of a Masterplan" fame), in which he explains his introduction into the rap game as an entreprenuer and reveals one shocking revelation. YZ's story is truly inspiring.

The other video features Lords of the Underground rapper Doitall telling his story of how he and his partner-in-rhyme Mr. Funke recorded "Funky Child." You will be equally impressed as to how LotU continues to stay relevant in today's stagnate hip-hop scene.

Keep those videos coming, D-Nice. And don't forget about the ladies in hip-hop, too.

Holla!
