Having grown born in the Bronx in 1970, I'm partial to the Eric B and Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, Run-DMC, Boogie Down Productions, etc......and then came to truly love A Tribe Called Quest later on......but hard to argue with the above, at least for me.

I always liked that Warren G song, probably because of the stolen sampled riff.
Hip hop stole me away from U2 during this time. Which is why I missed POP / Zoo Tour and all that.

DJ Ayres, Cosmo Baker, DJ Eleven - The History of Hip-Hop on The Rub
This has been mentioned elsewhere and didn't find a dedicated thread for it, so here it is for anyone that slept on it.
The Rub did a series of mixes highlighting tunes from some of the best years in hip hop. 1990-1998 done most recently, and 1978-1989 were done last year.

DJ Ayres, Cosmo Baker, DJ Eleven - The History of Hip-Hop on The Rub
This has been mentioned elsewhere and didn't find a dedicated thread for it, so here it is for anyone that slept on it.
The Rub did a series of mixes highlighting tunes from some of the best years in hip hop. 1990-1998 done most recently, and 1978-1989 were done last year.

Use the links above for 1979-1989 you lazy plods. (This post hit its maximum length)
I love DJ mixes...hence why I posted my house/electro mix in the forum.
I've always loved the old skool hip hop...
As well as U2.
The running joke years ago was at one time, I jokingly said to my friend. "Yeah right....that will be the day when Public Enemy opens for U2...pfffft!"
Ain't no shame in my game..

I enjoyed Snoops stuff round then, I mean still do these days but back then there was more around.
Also - A Tribe Called Quest, one of my fav videos is Scenerio, esp the bit where they all hang their heads then scream 'Criminal!' halfway through the video, and its a f*king brilliant song! Love the live gig shots through it too.
ah yes, cannot beat Old Skool rap.

Sorry..

Sorry..
This is such an egregious slight against me that I'm not sure that sorry will quite cover it. Not this time.
ATCQ are easily my favorite Hip-Hop act of all-time, I'm glad to see them getting some love in this thread....from The Bronx to Ireland to the Bay Area, nice.
You didnt post any videos.. that's why.

It's Old School to me!
Old School artists:
- Grandmaster Flash
- Sugar Hill Gang
- T La Rock
- Melle Mel
- Grand Wizard Theodore
- King Tim III
- Afrika Bambaataa
- World Class Wreckin' Cru
"Old school" refers to the time period from the beginning of hip hop till Run-DMC/the Juice Crew/Schoolly D/Rakim and a more rock-oriented style rap came along (1984-85) as opposed to the disco and funk influenced stuff of the early 80's. The artists you all are talking about are Golden Age artists.
Referring to NWA or Warren G as "old school" is a big pet peeve of mine.
