KHAN! The Me Generation

Formerly known as Dre Dog, Andre Nickatina is a San Francisco rap legend who somehow remains relatively unknown outside of Northern Cali, despite an abundance of quality material released since the early ‘90s (most notably *The New Jim Jones* and the three-volume *Cocaine Raps* series). Rhyming mostly about the drug game, the pimp game, and the seedy underbelly of life in the City By the Bay, he brings an O.G.\'s perspective to familiar and well-worn topics that would be played out in the verses of a lesser MC. Relentlessly stylish, with a compelling mix of griminess and offbeat humor, he\'s something like a mix of Mac Dre and Spice1; hardcore, smooth, and funny, all at the same time. Each of these 12 tracks is great, but don\'t miss the ode to gentlemen\'s clubs \"Nicky\'s (Strip Club),\" \"Popeye\'s Certified,\" and \"Tony Montana.\"
