Old School Rap

Sain Cai

Beautiful Daddy
NLC
I will be one of the first people on this planet to state I cannot stand todays rap/hiphop/whatever its called, but I still have a thing for the stuff I grew up with in the 80s.

A few of my favs are:

Wheels of Steel - Gransmaster Flash
Magics Wand - Whodini (alot of their stuff is good like the Freaks Come Out At Night)
King Tut - Word of Mouth f. DJ Cheese (fav one)

Does anyone else like when rap was actually about something?
 
I'm a sucker for pretty much anything late 80s and 90s. About the turn of the century was when hip-hop and rap turned to ----. Here are a few of my all time favs:

DMX - Party Up
Paperboy - Diddy
Lord Tariq & Peter Gunz - Deja Vu
Naughty By Nature - Hip Hop Hooray
Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg - Aint Nothin But A G Thang
Outkast - Player's Ball
Jay-Z - Can I Get A
Ice Cube - Today Was A Good Day
Snoop Dogg - Gin & Juice
Diddy & Mase - Can't Nobody Hold Me Down
Bone Thugs N Harmony - First Of The Month
 
Hey even the new rap are quite good. My favs are Eminem, Chris Brown, Akon, Jay-Z, Pitbull... Eminem is the King of Rap!! And even the Old Linkin Park albums are very good! I still like them...

Hard As They Come by CunninLynguists said:
[Verse 1: Freddie Gibbs]
C’mon lets ride out
The whole family over for Christmas dinner
Let’s go through the purses and sell the gifts from your mom's house
They know you out here doing dirt for cash
Plus you the one unemployed, a couple dollars ain’t gon hurt they ---
I’m the only friend you got
You tried to sell me but you took a hit and eventually you just couldn’t stop
A couple of sniffs would get you lit but couldn’t get you to the top
Oh what an event when you got hip to cooking me into them rocks
I had you locked, you know it costs to come and see me
So ---- yo groceries, ---- yo bills, go on and pawn that TV
And ---- yo life, just catch this beam and take it straight to the dome
And ---- yo kids, the state’ll separate em’ and place em’ in homes
It’s gonna be cool, I know I got you crazy subdued
Ever since the 80’s played your whole community for a fool
And the ones that sold me smoke each other over new tennis shoes
They field -----s, I’m the definition of death, the real killa

[Verse 2: Natti]
I’m a monster that don’t reside up under your bed
I’mma march to the beat that I put into your head
Send shots to your liver I deliver you death
You can barter your tomorrow but a martyr you’re left
Get you hot under the collar when my name’s on your breath
Click the starter on your Impala I’ll be there when you wreck
----ing with me you better keep your feelings in check
Be the life of the party or a lifeless body
Get with me thinking you hard, you’ll be hardly standing
I’m the hardest of them all, you’re the hardest landing
Face first in the asphalt, your --- talked
Too reckless, now you helpless from the rounds you caught
I’ll teach your --- a lesson, outlined in chalk
Have you hostage in the hospice, high and trying to walk
I am bravery in a bottle, I am courage in a glass
I got the government’s approval, prohibition couldn’t last
I go hard

[Verse 3: Kno]
I’m with the fiends on the block playing shoot em’ up
When I erupt makes it hard to know who to trust
People scared to test me since the 80’s
Anybody can get it, man woman or baby
Shots do not discriminate, impossible to eliminate
I disseminate, you disintegrate
I can come off as a prick, you might get stuck with
I’ll prolly steal your girl if you try and ---- with me
Cause next to me you’re looking quite frail
And if you snitch you’ll be counting your days in white cells
Just needlessly in CB4
Ask the CDC no CD4’s
Cause the truth is I’m on America’s ----
Uncle Sam ----s the poor and it’s making em’ sick
Now their life’s in a Tube, a downward spiral
Give a new meaning to going viral
I’m hard as they come

Linkin Park I would not classify as rap, more rock-n-rap like Rage Against the Machine and 311 (which is THE best band).

I like Gthing and that type of rap as well, good beat and nice videos lol. BT&H is a great group, but would they be rap or more R&Bish?
 
So why do you think they are so much famous? All the young people like it!

Exactly, the parents these days are raising a generation of self entitled, brain-dead, idiot children. The kids these days have no idea what music is. Pretty much everything hip-hop wise that was produced 2000+ is nothing but computer generated repetitive BS. Nobody actually RAPS anymore. Go listen to some Naughty By Nature and then listen to T-Pain for a while. You'll see what I am talking about.
 

sick list Ben. I noticed you are still listening to CL. Glad I introduced you to them man. :)

i will add to that list for some more great NEW underground rap
