Driving Game (Part 53)

ExtraMedium shared some links said Fri, Dec 23rd 2022 at 11:41am ET

If you’re new to the Driving Game, you can just look back at the start of it all here in Part 1 for the full rules.

Please consider the kind folks who maintain our cheat sheet and add your post in the format of “Artist Name - Song Name” followed by a link to the song on the next line. That way they all look the same and it’s easier on the Cheat Sheet team when it’s time to update that list.

Speaking of the Cheat Sheet… The full history of our game, with links to each of the past threads, can be found on the Driving Game Cheat Sheet. Use that to avoid getting vetoed by a duplicate.

Have fun!

- @ExtraMedium @januarymick Everlast got his start doing solo stuff and as part of Ice-T’s Rhyme Syndicate Records.
  
  His first solo album from 1990 is Forever Everlasting. Production wise it is a very good album. Lyrical delivery is good. Lyrical content is where it struggles. Full album starting with probably the best track.
