Ha! That's weird. He was at Berklee College of Music around the time I was going to Mass Art (or maybe just after). I knew a bunch of people who either collab'd with him, or who would just see him around at all the Boston hip hop stuff. I even had one friend who was a waiter and a hip hop fan, who always saw Edan at his restaurant/book store and would talk to him about music, and stuff.
So for me, he's my "home-town guy who made it to the big leagues." even though I didn't know about him until right before he left for Brooklyn.
