i heard all kinds of rap songs and they were coo but none were as dope as when i first heard "2 of Amerikkkas most wanted" by Pac and Snoop. That shit is what really got me into rap. and then I got into bay shit, then old school shit, then darkroom, then everything

its funny you can tell how old folks are based on what song got them hip to hiphop. mine was probably the message or white lines but the first i ever owned was in 2nd grade my mom bought me Raising Hell by RunDMC and licensed to ill by the beastie boys and a boom box for my birthday and its been on ever since

Shit growing up i had been listening to rap since 90 or so. fresh prince "girls ain't nothing but trouble" and shit like that. But i was always hearing shit on tv and people telling me what to listen too. But I started getting really heavy into in 94/95 and picked up an issue of Rap Pages and Goodie Mob was on the cover. I read the article and was instantly trying to find their cd cause they were the first cats i could recognize as southern. The cd exceeded my expectations. Discovering a group on my own made me hungrier to hear more and more and it became my obsession. And living in the south you didn't get as much hip hop exposure. I still got that issue of rap pages too. That same issue pyut me on to WC and the Madd Circle "Curb Servin" they didn't an interview with him at Roscoe's

I remember liking Hip Hop music but I was one of the most blessed fans to have the first album I picked up be "The Luniz" Operation Stackola. Still their best work and to this day one of my favorite CDs.

I cant remember when, but Aerosmith/Run DMC, Rob Base, Will Smith, and 2 live Crew... were the first ones I heard.

Rob Base was the one that hooked me into hiphop.

That's what I'm sayin Dugless. It's a trip how us older hip hop heads are sayin songs like "The Message" and then you get answers like 2Pac and Luniz. It's interesting.

see i never did that, youre on the east coast and im in the northwest so i never really went to radio for anything music wise. my next tapes i collected was Biz Markie's Goin Off when i was 8 and He's The DJ I'm The Rapper when i was 8 too. then Eazy Duz it when i was 9 spitting dirty ass raps on the playground in elementary school. Of course Mixalots SWASS came out when i was around 9 but we had the street tapes before that from him. Quik is The Name and Way Too Fonky like 12/13. my older cousins would hip me to music as we grew up and i would try to impress them with new shit i would discover. i remember them puttin me on to 40waters Federal and dshot the shot caller right when it dropped i was probably like 13 and nas illmatic when i was like 14.

shit. lots of memories, i been in love wit hiphop for a long time.
