Inspired by our Forum’s HHH Trivia thread started by truWord, we’ve decided to bless folk for their thinking skills and familiarity with hip-hop done to affect eternity. Very frequently The Yuinon will have opportunities for members and visitors to our site to win something that’ll help them rep Christ! It may be a book, a CD, a T-shirt, a study Bible, who knows. So keep checkin’ and be prepared to put your thinkin’ caps on.

Okay this is officially my longest running riddle. I just wanted to see how long I could stump you guys, I guess the answer is until Jesus comes.

For the record, lots of people got the DJ MAJ portion of the riddle correct but I wanted to give more people a chance to win so I held my ground and demanded complete, thorough answers. So here is the complete answer.

1The fam he runs with/roots not new – Gotee is not a new label but have a decade’s worth of experience. Multiple crews he’s worked with = Grits, The Factors of the 7 crew, Out of Eden, etc.
2He at the party’s helm is a DJ
3Maj – is one letter short of Maji (the wise men who came to observe this “historic invasion” or rather come see the baby Jesus)
4DJ Maj’s 3 CDs:

  1. The Wax Museum
  2. Full Plates
  3. The Ringleader

5 The “3-fold collabo on 2nd CD (Full Plates) – Out of Eden’s Spirit Moves remix featuring Da Truth (Maj + Truth + Out of Eden = 3)
Solo artist from this collabo who is now “prospering” (experiencing solo success) – Da Truth

Riddle # 8

The fam he runs with has roots not new, a niche cultivated through multiple crews.

He at the party’s helm is one letter short of those who came to observe this historic invasion, and thrice times since, he’s kept the music blazing. Identify this key player in our eternally focused genre, identify his fam, his discs, there should be at least one laying around ya. Secondly, identify this collaborating rhyme spitter from his 2nd assorted sonic offering, actually it’s a three-fold collab with this MC, who now is himself prospering.

The winner will receive a J-Silas Sound Proof CD and the 2 Yuinon Posters
