90s 80s Hiphop the best 2pac biggie rakim nas now Hiphop is garage

[izraeliz]

I disagree, the 90's bought about the greatest, "Biggie Smalls," Nas, Jay Z among others... After that era, I agree hip hop went to hell!

[CalRyanProductions]

@izraeliz Early 2000's was pretty dope though.

[ContraCommando]

@CalRyanProductions Early 2000s had some of the weakest rap music ever.

He never said that Hip Hop was started in Queens. He is just saying how they started rapping around his way.

[MrCrazyP95]

Never seen on this label.I've found it on Cold Chillin'.Played by DJ Dee "Scratch Master" Nasty in 1986 during a Mega Rap Attack on Radio7 in France.

[xpinner2010]

mc shan i went to his first show in toronto canada back in 1989, shan came outwith a drum kick set and this white guy did the bridge beat and shan spit lyrics. it was sick

so ill, a awesome concert he did. girls, girls girls.

[CensoredProduction]

how could you dislike this? honestly. 

[WILDSTYLENYC]

When I was stationed in Cali in 1984 and we used to hang out at the club on base on Saturday night you could tell all the New Yorkers from the crowd, they were wearing big belt buckles, black chinos with white pumas (clean as hell) with thick shoe laces and when people asked us where we were from we were like: "I am from Queens or Brooklyn or The South Bronx, we would never say NYC because it was obvious we were from there, we stood out like sore thumbs. I miss those days!!

[MrPhillyrick1]

this beat was years ahead of its time. this sparked the best rap battle of all times. when the blastmaster came back with "south bronx." then shan dropped " kill that noise." then krs dropped "the bridge is over." after that it was offical. hip hop started in south bronx.

they had niggas in philly taking sides. this song is a fucking classic for so many reasons!

[royalsteven]

This one was the best and hardest diss song. This beat was booming just like Public Enemies beats were.

[fjdksl86]

25 years later, this is still one of the greatest hip hop rec

[TokyoAnimeJunkie]

If You Don't know this song don't get up in My face with no Little Wayne Shit and say You love Hip hop. Bronx or Queens that doesn't matter now The Bronx AND Queens are BOROUGHS with Manhattan, Staten Island, and Brooklyn TOGETHER We are NEW YORK CITY And THAT'S where Hip Hop came from NEW YORK Hip Hop's Mecca.Hip Hop is not just Music it is CULTURE ,A Way Of Life Our Generation's Jazz. Don't let them RUIN Our Music like they ruin everything else. Record execs only care about money not Music.

Hip Hop will never, ever be the same pure, authentic street poetry that it once was - all we are left with is bastardized garbage over demonic vibrations and wack nursery rhymes! I'm pouring one out for Hip Hop...

[bigavraham]

dope shit!!!!!!

[LAATTILAH]

@ sirsilver1968, So that means "hip hop" did start in the Bronx... If Kool Dj Herc brought hip hop to the Bronx first. RIGHT... LOL!

[sirsilver1968]

Actually it was a jamaican called kool dj herc that brought hip hop to the bronx so neither queens or the bronx started hip hop lol

[frankiebones01]

KRS & Marley both did a track together......

So they patched things up.

[alban4doom]

DJ Red Alert vs Marley Marl....those were the days...Friday and Saturday Night.

I grew up in Jersey, and we use to climb up onto my roof with my BOOM BOX that took 28 D batteries, and record cassette after cassette of these classic battles. I've since lost the tapes, but I mixed an older school tribute on Soundloud under the name DJ EUPHORIA

[iancurtis86]

@FinsterFlummoxing yo, man, those had to be the days! Were they in beef, on the waves, or something? Because their MCs were... I'd pay for living that.

[wizeallah]
