So the last few days I've had to prepare for exams, and to avoid turning my PC on or watching TV (shit distracts the hell out of me) I've been checking out audio CD's I made when I was 6-7-8th grade (have in mind that's in the 2003-2004 time span [my first encounters with rap were when I was 7-8 years old, via MTV, busta, puff daddy, missy elliott, Pac...what they were playing back then]) and I'm amazed by how much shitty joints I've bumped back then (some of them I still like lol, they have a certain sentimental value to them)
so I've decided to make a few threads with some of the joints, some dope, some not, some that I still like, some that I'm like "wtf was I thinking?!?"
let the first two joints be from the first CD I bumped

I was getting into rap around 2000-2002 but it was 2003 when 50 blew up that I properly started getting into it. I used to bump Nelly, Eminem, G Unit and anyone else who had a big hit around that time. Thank god I bought a hip hop classics CD which had songs by everyone from Cypress Hill to Skee Lo to Wu Tang. Helped me branch out unlike many of my mates who to till this day only listen to the likes of Kanye, Wayne etc.

I got into rap through Pac, Dre and Snoop, and from there went underground, frist CD's I copped were Dels "No Need For Alarm" and Digital Undergrounds "Sex Packets". I used to be into Dilated Peoples heavy. I used to bump 50 and G Unit on the low, but didn't like to admit that I felt that shit haha, being 14 with mates who love metal 50 wasn't the coolest shit out!

Like I've said before, here in Bulgaria, 85 % of the people who listen to quality hip-hop and go to concerts are either nerdy of some low-lifes...thank God I have two friends that love the quality stuff, and are nothing like the people I described above
and yeah, I was massively into em and 50 while he blew up, I had a somewhat strange infatuation with Scott storch and checked every production of his I could find (which was not bad at all cause that eventually led me to check the Roots out[which exvluding 4 tracks were unknown to me]).I started gettin' into the classic quality shit when I started checking $hort's discography (mid 2005) and started comming here (same year).Dubcc exposed me to a lot of the shit I love bumping today

I started getting in to rap between 93 and 95... Fresh Prince, Digital Underground, Naughty By Nature, Skee-Lo, Coolio, DJ Quik, 2pac, Warren G & Luniz are some cats I remember checking out when I was young as fuck. I know I still got the singles for I Wish, Gangsta's Paradise, Hip Hop Hooray, Boom Shake The Room and Regulate... and in 1993, I was 7 :p My uncle (who's 6 years older then me) introduced me kinda early.

EAzyE, first off props for that Nas quote you have in your sig, I rarely even read signature's but that shit is dope. Nas is one of my favorite rappers but I don't think I've heard that song.
Anyway, nice thread. I came into hip-hop when I saw the "Wit A Dre Day" video on an MTV countdown back in summer of 93. As soon as I saw Snoop say "Bow Wow Wow Yippee Yo Yipee Yeah death row's definitely in the HOUSE"--- that was it for me. I was at an MU basketball camp (elite 8 team) in the lobby when I first saw that video, I won't forget. The older dudes in the camp were all going around saying "Bow Wow Wow Yipee Yo Yipee Yeah", it was the big catch phrase then.
I remember my cousins, friends and everybody got big into hip-hop around the time of Doggystyle and the Chronic. Me, I got into it, and stayed into, where all of my friends and cousins had abandoned hip-hop by 97. So I guess for most it was just a fad that started around the time of The Chronic and Doggystyle, but for me it was for real and permanent.

haha yeah, we got some fine ass women around here 8)
Infinite, that quote is from "Deja Vu" which is one of my favorite Nas tracks ever.Song is purely amazing and it's a shame we will probably never hear it in CDQ.As far as I know it was cut from Illmatic due to sample clearance
The definitive moment I got into hip-hop tho was Busta's "Gimmie Some More" vid lol.I was 8 back then, shit was just out, back then I didn't speak english, obviously, didn;t understand a thing of the song, but I loved the vid for some reason and the beat gave me chills lol

I'm not gonna lie, it was the Marshall Mathers album that got into rap proper. But it was a few years earlier when I realised I didn't like any music at all, then one day I heard California Love. That was the song for me that got me into hiphop.
