Mentors of the Aurora (Braille, ILLTripp & Ethic of Sandpeople) - The Unimportant Ones (1998)





Well folks, Trylemma is off in a third world country this week conducting a deal with some very sketchy fossil collectors in order to hook us up with the rarest specimens... Or he has to work, but I like my reason better so we'll go with that. Anyway sorry for the delay yesterday.

Therefore, UGF is happy to bring you The Unimportant Ones, a collaborative effort from a few of Portland's most important rappers (wait...) Ethic (yep) and Braille along with someone named ILLTripp as Mentors of the Aurora.

This album was a cassette that I ripped recently and haven't had a chance to listen through yet. I can tell you that sound quality is good, material is very dope with that early millennium 4 track flavor we all grew up on. Heavy on the spirituality for those who favor that, and competently produced with some very tight rhymes for the rest of us. Especially cool knowing how far these dudes have come in 20 years.

With that I'll keep it short and sweet, definitely let us know what you think of The Unimportant Ones. See you on Friday (tomorrow, but we're pretending it's Wednesday)!
