wow! Re-discovered one of the 1st tunes that got me into hip hop in 87.....male ghetto version of cinderella....back then a story was told,it kept with the subject & ended with a solid conclusion....i was just 13 when i heard this....*bollox hadnt quite dropped!!!* lol
i was seventeen and in high school back in 2006-2007 and i got this song on a cd. i just could not stop listening to it. i thought of cinderella when i heard this song. and i heard another old school rap song that said mirror mirror on the wall. that one reminded me of snow white. i listened to a hard core rap channel and my favorite time of the day was when they played old school hits for at least an hour. :)
The best thing about old school rap is the stories...you can follow along with Chuck D orchestrating a prison break or the Showboys giving you a fresh spin on The Untouchables. What happened to rap?
Told a story, kept with the subject, ended with a solid conclusion. Awesome, wishing that type of format would come back. Not knocking on the new stuff too much. Back then, no one got shot, talked b*tches, or idolized their car! That's why these people are and will be forever the greatest in my book.
Can't mention Slick Rick without mentioning Dana Dane and Doug E. Fresh. #HipHop
