Art Quote by Fabolous
“I think that's one thing that hinders hip-hop and I think when everybody tries to be the same... That's why people look at the 1990s almost like it was a golden era in hip-hop 'cause it was so much diversity in the music and in the artists. It wasn't everybody just trying to paint the same picture and say it with the same flow.”
