KRS-One VS. Roxanne Shante [BDP VS. Juice Crew]

Where did hip hop truly originate? In the mid-80's, MC Shan and producer/DJ Marley Marl seemed to imply that the New York borough of Queens should get the credit, according to lyrics Shan recited in "The Bridge". MC Shan: "You love to hear the story again and again of how it all got started way back when. The monument is right in your face, sit and listen for a while to the name of the place ... THE BRIDGE, QUEENSBRIDGE".

KRS-One and his Boogie Down Productions crew represented their home borough in this infamous feud, and firmly insisted that the Bronx was the birthplace of hip hop, not Queens. KRS-One and BDP soon released a follow-up to "The Bridge" entitled "South Bronx".

The battle continued over the next few years with Boogie Down Productions representing Bronx, and the Juice Crew representing Queens. Numerous diss tracks were released by both sides. KRS-One called out female rap pioneer Roxanne Shante (Juice Crew) in "The Bridge Is Over". Shante fired back in the catchy yet forceful track "Have a Nice Day".

I CAN REALLY SHAKE UP FOOLS WITH THIS ONE!

JAY-Z isn't the rapper with the highest worth value of riches. Dude has a lot of investment that has helped him acquire his wealth. Then it would be safe to say... Will Smith is the richest rapper and qualified to be titled as a rapper. He put out 4 albums, won multiple grammy awards and had 3 classic singles to contribute to the hip hop culture. Jay-Z= about 700-900 million, Will Smith= about 2-3 billion. Just food for thought.

Krs one, what the fuck roxxane shante is only good for steady fucking?? she was 13 man, that's fucking messed up

Down with the sound called BDP!!

[DeBo1220]

She wasn't 13 that is a big exaggeration. She was 17 when the song came out and turned 18 that year.

@FoziaAbdi BDP has a song called "13 & good" that deals with attraction to young but mature looking girls.

@FoziaAbdi Nah... It doesn't make me think anything. Dude is dead! One success can't be compared to a person who's dead if the person who's alive exceeded the success of the dead person. There is no possible way knowing a full fledged outcome of who was more successful. Since Biggie & Pac died... NO ONE has been more successful or close to selling more albums or singles in hip hop/rap than Jay-Z other than DMX if he was able to keep his ass out of jail and keep recording.
