If you've seen any of the previous episodes of Unsung that spotlight a classic hip hop artist/group (and I've featured most of them on this site), then you'll know what to expect. This time around it's the turn of EPMD.
Both Erick Sermon and Parrish Smith contribute to this, along with DJ Scratch too, so it's a balanced view of their history. Starting at the school where they first met, they document the creative recording techniques from their first album, JMJ hooking them up with DJ Scratch, forming the Hit Squad and much more besides. But it's when things started to fall apart that it gets really interesting. Both artists talk openly about the fallout, the reasons, and the subsequent reformation.
