staHHr, or as we affectionately refer to her “Barbarella”, hits us with round two of the Respect Due video series. This installment, she attacks the gritty Jeru the Damaja classic “Come Clean”, produced by DJ Premier. The video was shot on location in Brooklyn, NY by the talented photographer/videographer Corren Conway of F12 Films.
“Most these rap cats don’t know where it started, where it came from
We been repping this shit since Day One
Digging In The Crates originators
Why niggas player hate us, knowing damn well you can’t fade us.”
DITC- “Day One”
Salute to the MIGHTY DITC (Diggin’ In The Crates) crew. Showbiz and AG, Diamond D, Lord Finesse, O.C., Big L ((RIP), at Joe and Buckwild are names any head worth their salt should be familiar with. Respect due!

This installment of “Respect Due” O.G. salutes A Tribe Called Quest. “Who got the vibe? it’s the tribe y’all.”. They are probably one of the greatest influences on me as an artist/mc in this hip hop culture. They created a lane that made it easier for me to approach my artistry the way that I do. Thank you for paving the way and for the inspiration!
