A CALL TO ALL OF HIP-HOP'S FOUNDING FATHERS!! (Read and pass along)

I have made this point previously, and I would like to ask you ALL to help me facilitate this.  As we all mourn Phife's passing, there is something else that passed with him. HIS story of HIS experience with ATCQ and hip-hop as a whole.  We can listen to everyone else tell us their perception of his experience, but the opportunity to hear it from his OWN lips is now forever gone.

I want to reach out to as many of our classic hip-hop artists as possible and have them either write an essay, a short story, a book, a page, a paragraph, or for that matter a voice message and i'll transcribe it, telling THEIR story of THEIR experience in THEIR words from THEIR perspective.  I want to take the collective and create a "history book", before all we have left, is hearsay and stories passed down, watered down, altered.....before the history of our founding fathers is reduced to nothing more than "legend" "folklore".....the "telephone game"

If nothing else, as I know how limited everyone's time is, if you would either send me an email list that I can send this letter to, or better than that, if you would forward it to those you feel would be willing, with a small endorsement of the idea, that would help. 

We MUST get this ball rolling before we lose anymore.
Phife was MY age. Just a kid...
