the first nigga to put out a rap record from sd was a cat by the name of SOULFUL EARNIE.this was in about 1985.he died from aids in about 92.i know because he lived on my street when i was a young child.back then the radio station was 92.5 and he would get cool spins without needin payola.his record reached #1 in houston for a min.then came BIG Green Eyes, from my set again and the Notourious Gangsta Earn from 5/9 Brims.My nigga from the WrongKind,Greeny Green, is better know on the streets of S.D. as Baby Green Eye's after BIG Green Eye's.O.G.

Little more history..

I had a 5 song ep out in 88 before I got indicted in 89. It's hella rare, and never was for sale. I was straight bangin' on it. Stupid shit, sayin' shit a nigga was actually doin' at that time. Glad niggaz can't find it now. I did 3 songs over Too Short's Freaky tales, and 2 songs off of Young MC's beat "I let em' know". Traclisting was:

Mission Possible
The Young Gangsta
Bow Down Fool
Think First
(Can't remember the last song)

The homies still talk about that tape. I still remember the lyrics to Mission Possible, and The Young Gangsta. I never heard Gangsta Earn or Green Eyes, cause them niggaz came out after we all got gaffled. I always wonder what would've happened if I wouldn't have did all them years. I could've blew up by now, or I could've been dead too, cuz a nigga was out here doin' way too much. Niggaz had contracts on me and some mo' shit. Real spit.

But it was another nigga out of Dago that was raw, but he was rappin' in the early 80's. His name is Willie D (before the one from Houston). That's who I used to look up to. First nigga I heard rap about gangsta shit. He had a song about og Bake Nuts from NH that got killed in the early 80's. Willie D just never put an album out.

I REMEMBER WHEN LIL C.S. WAS DJ L.I DO REMEMBER HEARIN THEM SONGS.I CANT REMEMBER WHAT THEY WAS ABOUT, BUT FOR SURE NIGGAS IN EAST DAGO WAS BUMPIN UM.
Yep my nigga, DJL (my initials) was my bangin and rap name. Two reasons why I ain't usin' that name now is because I took my brother's name because I feel everybody forgot about him, so I wanted to keep his name alive, and I also wanted a fresh start from the One Time, because if I would've came out rappin' under that name (or mentioned my real first name) they would've been on a nigga from jump, and brought up all that old shit and put 2 and 2 together on a nigga. It's a gang of niggaz that didn't know Lil C.S. was me, and figured out that Lil C.S. is **** later, which is how I wanted it. But when I made that tape I was in full bang mode, and

I was disrespectin' niggaz sets, namin' streets and all kind of shit. A nigga was on one. Shit, I had contracts out on me and som mo' shit. Nigga was hella young. But on some other shit Mitch, Baby Ant gets out 2 months my nig. He wanted that Source with you in it too, and I just sent it to him.

Oh yeah, and Mistery is my homey. He grew up right across the street from the first Highland Park in East Dago. We used to call him Fat Eddie. He was from the turf, but never banged it though. My homies was in his video and shit. I was in the feds when he was poppin'. I think that was the early 90's. 1

Gangsta Earn was some classic old school dago shit. Aztec Tribe and Big June also was early dago rappers actually putting out tapes. Who else...L.O.D, CiCi, Knights of the Round Table (they were hella sorry) Anybody remember Dr. Devious or Dago's Most Hated ? They was some old school cats too ..

Dago City

That is a trip I got most of all that early music. Dago been the Game for a minute. It is really our time to shine and the undergound it the best way to make it crack. The art will be true and peeps could get there money so when it is time to go big soldiers could write there own ticket. Ownership it the key to this game. The dayz of the enemy controlling us is been over.
