When Rakim’s rap career began to take shape he was in high school and he says Eric B. let him know he’d have to drop out if he wanted to go on tour. After consulting with his parents about the business move, his mother was skeptical about his decision while his father was more supportive of it. He had to promise them he’d get his GED in order for them to sign off. Decades later he’s a rap icon but still no GED on the wall.
