To be fair I do like the Jay-Z collaberations with Linkin Park.I usually let things like this pass because taste in music is a subjective preference. But you're just wrong about this one.
Well what the f*ck would I know I'm 40! ๐
For me, the early 90s were the golden years of hip hop. I could list hundreds of incredible tracks, but here's a small selection of absolute classics
Brand Nubian - Punks jump up to get beat down:
Fu-Schnickens - True Fuschnick
Black Sheep - The choice is yours
One of the tags was mine....

For me too.
I'm liking the new Jay Z and Kanye album, especially Otis
Also has one of the coolest videos I've seen for a while.

40? You're a year younger than Jay-Z and had the golden age of hiphop in your youth! ๐
To be fair, I think my bitterness about that album is that I despise Linkin Park.
The Golden Age of Hip Hop! ๐
I think it must have passed me by!
When I get really bored, I like looking at samples histories.
If you're doing Apache you missed out
The beat from Yonkers comes in at about 8 minutes.
I created a playlist from the videos on here.
99 tracks!

Oi, it may be tired to you, it's the soundtrack of my yoot sunshine!
I saw em live matey. They were good, but MC Tunes smokes too much ๐
Didn't we all, back then? ๐
Where did you see them?
Missed the reunion gig at the Roadhouse (didn't even know about it till a year or so later, gutted).
They were homegrown, rough & ready and Lockett was a great lyricist and rapper.
They could actually play as well..........
Portsmouth Wedgewood Rooms. Great little club.
(Playlist is great, not a bad track yet - I really like Hail Mary Mallon)
haven't read the thread but rapping is (or was) the term for hip hop music.
hip hop included breakdancing, graffitti and double dutch jump rope.
stay old skool ๐
hiphop is a philosophy that demands that it's subscribers practice the four elements
MCing (rapping)
DJing
Graffiti
Breakdance
It's intent is to empower underpriviledged ghetto youth through music.. followers are called b-boys/b-girls
anyhoo.. here's another track for your playlist Dez..
[i]haven't read the thread but rapping is (or was) the term for hip hop music.[/i]
Well the thread was started by someone asking for recommendations based on stuff he'd heard previously.
I suspect he's heard Double Dutch.
I bumped it because I created a Youtube playlist of all the recommendations so I could listen to them all.
