Fact. PSK considered the first gangster rap song. Schooly D was from Philly and had to go there for Phily to stand out. Soon after Ice T mimicked that Schooly D shyt and made noise with 6 In The Morning and became one of the first popular rappers from Cali. World Class Wrecking Crew tried being Whodini and flopped, changed their names to NWA, used profanity in their music and became Cali legends. Too Short gains popularity for using profanity in his music. And all 3 of these Cali reps were popular before Tone Loc, MC Hammer and Young MC had mainstream success. Geto Boys when they first came out were constantly being compared to NWA due to their profanity laced lyrics and because of that they put Texas on the map. 2 Live Crew...First popular reps from Miami....Their whole gimmick was using over the top profanity. Vanilla Ice would come years later repping Miami.

This is hip hop history....All other cities had to use profanity as a gimmick in order to stand out from NYCs dominance in 80's hip hop.

('m not gonna even speak on the 90's with the other coasts using the Chip Fu from The Fu Snickens fast rap style from Canada (Snow) to Chicago (Twista) to Cleveland (Bone Thugs)...Thats a whole other topic)
Twista was out before Das Efx, and they stole that igggidy shyt from Spice 1

And they increased the entertainment value tenfold adding doper beats and topics other than shyt nobody cared about outside of the five boroughs.

:unimpressed:



Aside from Miami all the beats from other cities in the 80's sounded East Coastish ...Once again u are talking about shyt u shouldnt be speaking on because u werent even born.

Or you could just stay the fukk out of my conversations like I promised to do with you. Remember, I promised not to even comment on anything u have to say about hip hop or life in genera because your knowledge on most things is trash. I kept my promise. So why dont u do the same and stay the fukk outta my conversation.



Remember me and you are 2 different people who dont relate. At 21 you couldnt even help ya mom with her light bill....Me at 19 I went to the army and being in Basic Training I didnt need to spend money, I sent grandma $100 every 2 weeks. I came home, she had an envelope filled with every money order I sent because she didnt need my money. I declined and told her keep it because thats what a real man does, he holds down the people who held him down....A real man doesnt sit on his ass in mommys house at 21 and cant even help to have her lights turned on....Only a piece of shyt son would be so useless and worthless at 21. SMH.

I never heard anybody ever say WCWC was a Whodini knock off. You are the first person I ever heard say that. “Don’t turn off the lights” was a hit song so how did they flop? WCWC didn’t change their name. Dre and yella left WCWC scooped up Mc Ren & Ice Cube and made NWA.

Oh you still here? :sas1:


The topic isnt about me tho.

And my greatest accomplishment was raising a Black man to be an outstanding citizen who would never put himself at 200K in debt. :mjlol:

Thank god my son had a father to show him in the direction of grants and not loans. Plus Me having a well paying job allowed me to go in my pockets to cover any other expenses. Man o man if only u had me in your life as your pops...you'd damn sure be financially more stable then u are now. :ehh:

The look and the sound was Whodini-ish to me. :yeshrug:



And with all due respect that musta been a local hit around your way cuz it didnt makes its rounds as being a hit on this side.

First rap song was profane with gangster lyrics. Way to rewrite history though. Rapp Dirty if you don't know was before all that other shyt.

Other coast used profanity to stand but the fake lead coast started using profanity and just fell in line during the 90's?

How set a trend then lose it to ride followers waves :unimpressed:
That's the saddest turn around I've ever heard:jbhmm::pachaha:

Maybe they should have kept rapping like Busy Bee and everything would have stayed the same:skip:

Dont know what u talking about. I never once mentioned Das Efx. :ehh:
Fu-Shnickens/Das Efx...same thing to me, either way Twista was out before Shnickens so his style dont come from them..and lets be honest, nobody was jocking those cornballs style except other cornballs from the east coast. Yawl should thank the west for paving a path away from polk a dot pants and raps about hot buttered toast
