A-Dam-Shame

about

Originally A-Dam-Shame is from the Memphis area. When you put that first record out were you already in Atlanta? We was in Atlanta. We came to Atlanta tryin to get us on. We left Tennessee together. At that time 8Ball and them was in Houston, it wasn’t no Rap scene in Memphis like it is now. Atlanta was hot so we came down here and tried to get on. That was about ’95, ’96 when we got down here. I’m from Somerville, Tennessee, that’s right outside of Memphis, and then Lil Walt and Gauge, they from Jackson, Tennessee. At that time there wasn’t too much going on in Memphis? No. Gangsta Blac, Playa Fly, Al Kapone—everybody was doin they thang. Skinny Pimp was doin his thang, Three-6 was really just gettin on. But nobody was tryin to notice Memphis then. Everybody was stealin styles and shit. People in different areas was takin what we were hearin forever—what Skinny and Al Kapone was doin back in ’91 and ‘92—and runnin with it. They was hatin from different regions, not givin Memphis our props. So we was like, let’s get on down and see what’s happenin in Atlanta, it was like the new Motown.
