whoever else they played on the radio in the late 80s, early 90s.

I thought the same thing when I bought that cd and sold it only to buy it again a yr later
-
I had the braking 2 ost on vinyl that I still own to this day. I also had a force mds & rakim cassette that I stole off my older sister. Then I got into 2-live crew, NWA. Cypress Hill was the first cd I bought in 92. But I can say I first started to listen to hip hop in 86'87 when i was 8 or 9. Before that it was the oldies station or MJ.
I learnt allot from hip hop even though it isn't my favorite genre of music. Reggae and Dancehall is my shit growing up and DJ'n in Toronto...
BASHMENT UPPPP!!!
-
Shit i been around it basically my whole life. From my cousins listening to it, to seeing it on T.V and what not. I dont really know what introduced me FIRST to it. Maybe some Eazy-E and Too Short, im guessing. But thats when i really got into rap, when i heard them two, i dont know what first got me into hip-hop though, there were so many hits back in the day!!!
-
Now I am 21, but I was around 15 when i first started really getting into rap. You always see some rap videos on MTV, puffy and pac, but I remember it was afroman that really got me into rap. If you look beyond " because i got high " to tracks like " basehead boogie " , dude could rap! Then i hit the motherload when i discovered Swollen members - Bad dreams, the album.. jesus! That shit is so crazy
-
eminem marshal mathers lp, dr dre. nelly and 2Pac aka Makaveli The Don
-
im a youngster so the first hiphop song i REALLY REALLY took notice to and really went out of my way to get was "Bad Intentions" by Dr Dre/Knocturnal..that was my first ever "real" favorite hiphop song, and thats why i like knocturnal so much ;)
The Wash is also the first album i ever bought and after hearing "str8 west coast" i had my first ever favorite artist ;)
