Anybody here into old school rap: Rapper's Delight, Kurtis Blow, Paid in Full, Sucka MCs, Fat Boys, etc? Your favorite song and/or artist? I'd have to say Paid in Full is my favorite song and Kurtis Blow is my favorite artist.
Run DMC are my favourite old school rappers. They may have started the whole "brand name fetishism" thing, but at least they were honest about it.
The Backyard Boyz and the Serial Killaz. You probably never heard of them, but they were some old school groups consisting of the original Three Six Mafia members back in the 80's.
