--------
Hip-Hop legend Special Ed discussed his music career. Despite his album going gold and two other hit singles, he felt disrespected as he did not receive the increased royalties promised to him in his contract. Ed also discussed the lack of collaborations between artists at that time and his dedication to working with just one producer. Additionally, Ed talked about his journey of buying two condos in Brooklyn. Although there were issues with these properties, they accrued in value, offering him some financial security. Furthermore, Ed spoke about his sophomore album "Legal" and its hit song "The Mission," sharing that the original version of the plot was shut down by the label, resulting in a new, revised one that actually got radio airplay.
