This is one of the best Tours I have ever done, Rayzor was our hip hop guide, he was absolutely brilliant, his knowledge of hip hop and Harlem was fantastic, it was so interesting to see how and when the music started, and how Harlem used to be before they started moving the people of Harlem into the projects so they could have there houses and streets, it’s a tour not to be missed and with a guide like Rayzor who makes it fun, while educating you, please if your going to do a tour please do this one you will not be disappointed, thank you Rayzor and the best of luck with your music, definitely an up and coming star xx
