I'll be the first to admit that. The stuff I listen to is old, atleast 3 years or more old. Remember when my name at the forum used to be 'Hip Hop Is Dead'?

I've only been here since the fall.
hes been out for a minute now and his single kick push is getting buzz. His album leaked about 3 weeks ago. But hes really into skateboarding which is something popular among the white devils so I dont know how much you will like him.
Look it up man, old school only means that you hold traditional values or ideals, so in that sense I'm an old school hip-hop fan. Back in 1993 we used to call the 80's "old school". So I don't understand why in 2006 we can't consider the 90's "old school". Tell me why? Second of all, notice I said 3 years or more meaning that 2003 was the end (93 was the beggining), I cut myself off from anything new after that point (with some exceptions).
What "traditional values or ideals" are you referring to?In hip-hop, "old school" has very a specific connotation, and anything from beyond the early-90s' ain't it.
Possibly, you bring up an interesting point, this would be a good subject for another thread. What constitutes "old school" when in reference to hip-hop. Because I think that until Pac died, rappers were still following a similar formula to the 80's.
There's nothing wrong with skateboarding, or being white. I'm white (although I never skateboarded).

Styles and trends in hip-hop change extremely rapidly, but "old school" generally means anything before "The Chronic" and the G-Funk era (Pac was more-or-less a rapper of the G-Funk era). I think the main thing that distinguishes the G-Funk era from the Golden Age (old school era) is the fact that in the Golden Age, it was all about free-for-all sampling, whereas G-Funk marked the point where production was driven more by borrowed melodies, synthesizers, and female backing vocals.
