What was the one song that made you a hip-hop head
TraceOneInfinite:
For me it was "Dre Day" Dr. Dre feat. Snoop and Jewell
Jewell RIP passing away made me think to bring up this topic again.
But THE song that got me into hip-hop was "Wit A Dre Day". That was THE joint. Everyone has that one song that was the AHA! moment when the lightbulb came on in their head. Before that video came out I was just your regular fan who liked stuff like Young MC "Principals Office" or Naughty By Nature's big singles, stuff like LL Cool J "Mama Said Knock You Out", or "Rump Shaker". That was what I knew of rap, but I wasn't a hip-hop head. Even "G Thang" didn't make me into a hip-hop head. It was a video that was on but I wasn't fully aware.
When I saw "Wit A Dre Day" come on when I was away from home for a week at MU Missouri Tigers basketball camp summer of 93' that was it for me. We were all in the lobby in between our games. It was great because you would get to play like 5 games a day when you were away at camp. It was like the best time of my life being able to play in real, competitive games all day long and listen to people like Anthony Peeler tell you what it was like to play against Michael Jordan.
So that's my best memory for Jewell is that she was on the track that literally turned me into a hip-hop head. When that video came on when I was away at camp in 93' the whole fuccin camp the catch phrase was "Bow Wow Wow Yippee Yo Yippee Yea" all the older dudes were rappin that back and forth to games. I was hooked when that video dropped, and hip-hop has been not only my chosen music but a way of life for me ever since. So props to Jewell for being on it and coming through and doing her thing on the outro that was like a coronation and celebration at the end--she helped make that joint big, and made me a hip-hop head for life.

combination of digital underground sex packets, eazy-e eazy duz it, and run-dmc raising hell
those 3 albums were the ones that stood out the most when i was first gettin into hip-hop as a young'n

The censored version of the song is just called "Dre Day". Looks kind of funny when you keep callin' it "Wit A Dre Day".
