Rob those selections were as predictable as if they were the top of some endless Spin magazine "Top blah blah of the 1980s" list...
No Kid Frost? No Egyptian Lover? No Doug E Fresh and Rick the Ruler? No Knights of the Turntables? No Arabian Prince? No Ultramagnetic MCs? No Lisa Lisa? No Too $hort? No World Class Wrecking Cru? Meh. Y'all don't be spreading any rap err.. rep anyways ;) |
did we already say A Tribe Called Quest? No? Lame.

Just to be clear, does anyone have an approximate date on when "old school" ends?
|
Good question. I do not know the divisions, but I guess it is anything pre 2000? who knows.
|
old school hip hop is 1980-1988 and even then that is pushing it, really its more like 1986. By the late 1980s it became more recognizable to 1990s style of rap, but 1980-86(and some groups till 88) have that more "old school" sound and feel.

toiletta once posted this link.
