Title: The Unsung Hook Singers of ‘90s Rap Classics Speak
Post by: gfunkin2 on July 05, 2023, 08:50:00 PM
Some good history about just how big Nanci Fletcher was for Death Row back then. And how it's not Jewell singing on Snoop's "Who Am I"

Tasha killed it on 'Thuggish Ruggish' and never knew it was her on Scarface's Mary (thought it was Ashanti), she killed that one too!
Her not getting royalties from 'Ruggish' aint right.

Them talented girls sang thier hearts out on those rap records, great article.

Shit... if I was from Cleveland... when Tasha finishes with that "Cleveland is definitely in the house!" I mean considering it's a bit of a lowly city and they were the ones to put Cleveland on the map, that shit can bring you to tears

Singers don't get enough credit.

Dave Hollister did at least two songs with Pac, right?
