Hip Hop/Rap thread?

One of my favorites:



I played Beastie Boys License to Ill until the tape broke when I was a kid.

 

[Pork Chop Express]

Yah, White Lines is still a great track. :

Even though the album is a couple years old Chance the Rapper's "AcidRap" has been on steady rotation for a couple of days. I typically don't listen to new stuff, but he's an exception.

Love some KRS-One!

The Roots are the only reason I even watch The Tonight Show anymore lol. Easily the greatest late night band, ever!

KRS-One never really did anything for me for some reason. I was big on LL though

This is an Oakland classic from 1993. Video directed by 2Pac.

There you go. Early 90's right there.

That song use to remind me of my old buddy who always smoked cheap ass weed. That was practically his theme song that we gave to him.

Just a great album all-around. Love this track in particular.

 

[Pork Chop Express]

Watching this now the video is kinda funny but the song still rocks.

Big L. I remember him. Souls of Mischief's '93 Til Infinity is one of he best rap albums ever. I remember waiting for forever for Del's No Need for Alarm to come out. Liks is sweet! The MF Doom/Madlib Madvillain album is great so is the DangerDoom album.


Still the first three Tribe Called Quest albums are the best for me.

Speaking of RBL, Hiero and MacMall. Anyone remember Freestyle Fellowship and the B.U.M.S.?

And this guy

Who is this Jay-Z kid?

As a hip hop DJ in the early nineties I remember the golden age well.

I remember seeing this video once when I was like 15 and never saw it again. The album never got released and I forgot about it. All I could remember that the rapper was a red headed guy with a beard that sounded like he had mental issues. I did remember he was signed to Jive so I checked their list of former artists on the wikipedia and found it: Crustified Dibbs!
