Ooh yes, trying to educate daughter in the knowledge just yesterday afternoon.

Buying a pair of Nike trainers, and I saw a pair of Adidas ones I preferred. Started singing My Adidas much to her horror she walked out the shop.

Didn’t save me £150 like, we still ended up in another shop.

Only a few years back; I would've said that hip hop wasn't really my cup of tea - but I watched De La Soul at Glastonbury a few years back - and they were brilliant. A mate recently introduced to Michael Franti / "The Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy" album. Staggeringly good.

Spot on, no other rap was played, not even on the radio, that only started to change a bit in like 1998 and that was r&b, couldn't even go to a bar or club as they never played proper hip hop

If you have Netflix check out The Defiant Ones, a four part documentary around Dr Dre and Jimmy Iovine. The second ep is pretty much centred around NWA. The whole thing is well worth a watch though.

Love loads of different types of hip hop.

The original gangster rap stuff from ice T, nwa etc.

Then the later rap stuff introduced from early Eminem, his new stuff just doesn’t compare to the slim shady era.

Then the new stuff from the likes of Tyler the creator, earl sweatshirt etc

Also if you haven’t heard of them check out poisonous poets.

Sounds like the record jumped when you wrote the thread title OP

My fascination with Hip Hop started with watching the Breakdance and Beat Street films and listening to the Electro compilations. Ended up being an avid record collector and loved visiting record shops and spent ages rifling through the records looking for gems.

I'm a huge fan of NWA and the Easy-E solo stuff, along with most of the others you mentioned. First gig I ever went to was to see Public Enemy/Run DMC in Newport in the late 80's, and have been lucky enough to see Ice-T, De La Soul and Gang Starr since then.

Was also into a lot of UK stuff at the time - Demon Boyz, Hijack, Overlord X, Ruthless Rap Assasins, Cash Crew etc..

I've tried listening to the current Hip Hop acts, but it's just not the same anymore. You can't beat the classics.
