Eazy pulled it all together, recruted the talent, stole the equipment to record the album... true. But Dre produced all the music. Sorry to break it to you but it was the music that people dug, not the equipment it was recorded on. That said, I agree NWA was Eazy's. |
Eazy started the whole crew...and funded it....Dre is brilliant...but without Eazy the would NEVER of happened.

Dre produced Eminem's first album and all the music on it. There is very little different between that album and Niggas for Life other then the expected evolution over time. If you follow from NWA to Snoop's early , to Eminem it's all a natural progression of what Dre started doing in 1986. The key elements are the same. |
Ya but i thought u meant that Eminem sounded like NWA. WHich they dont. |

I believe that we have reached an agreement.
Too bad there's nothing the caliber of NWA out now. I can't even listen to the they call Hip-hop/rap now. None of it means anything and it's larely incoherent. Unintelligable bable set to music is all that it is now. What happened to Chuck D DAMNIT! |

a lot of good in this thread.
the first record i ever bought on my own was in 1986 -- doug e. fresh and slick rick's "the show" with "la-di-da-di" on the b-side...
(second vinyl was eric b. & rakim's "my melody" on zakia records later that year -- i still have both)
first hip-hop show i ever attended was a teen show put on by BDP at club Ark in Brooklyn in 1990 which then became a block party.
tribe will always be one of the best groups of all time but their legacy will be forever tarnished for the way they fell off after midnight marauders. epmd was also was one of my favorite groups for their sheer consistency but then they fell into the whole cycle of drama and poor releases.
most consistent group that has emerged over the last 12 years is gangstarr - always doing their thing.
and brooks, phife was cool but putting him among the best lyricists? c'mon bro lol :tongue2
(he did have some of the best one liners though: "bust a nut inside your eye to show you where i come from" lol) |

As I sit in my b-boy stance
With flip-flops and socks, and sweatpants
We finna enhance your brain, check it out
Once upon a time not long ago
When the playa from the Pointe didn't have no flow
A nigga hit me for my tennis shoes, walkin to the sto'
Caught a nigga slippin, but now I lay it to the flo'
just like carbon, cuz I got the heat in my rhythm
Momma nay not, never braggin just to stay knot
Even when I was a younger lad I learned my lesson
Never talked to strangers in the trap and answered questions
The Pope and his folks got us under a scope
But for unknown reasons cuz we don't sell dope
That you distribute, we don't contribute, to your clandestine
activity, my soliloquoy, may be hard for some to swallow
But so is cod liver oil
You went behind my back like Bluto when he cut up Olive Oil
Two things I hate lies and thieves they make my blood boil
Boa constricted, on my soul that they call
Touched by the wheelz of steel...
Now show me how you feel...
Touched by the wheelz of steel...
Now show me how you feel...
It took your momma nine months to make it
But it only took a nigga thirty minutes to take it
Cut that kronk clean up I did, but I did so not safely
Don't want no AIDS, *clapping* no claps, or no rabies
Yo, we take no , like arms stuffed up commodes
Gotta collect call, they done locked up my folks
Low blow, hit me in the left ventricle
We won't be able to ride out till two thousand fo'
But not for long cuz we got a better sack to serve
Tryin to take you other people for your rims at the curb
Fore you swerve and bust ya forehead, go head, go head
More head for me, while you ride to the beat
Drop, like Tears, like For Fears, you know
Shout Shout let it all out, just for my peers
And pupils who feel like it's time to unwind
Like December 31st, on nineteen-ninety-nine
Okay, like this, yeah yeah
One time for my boy doing King
Two times for Legit and it don't quit
Three times for my folks in the drop top
Four times OutKast and it don't stop
One time for my cuz doing Queen thangs
Dead fresh to the teeth eatin chicken wings
Three times for my guhls in the beauty shop
Four times OutKast and it don't stop |
:toothless |

I never really liked west coast rap...i am a New Yorker through and throguh:D ...but i will give the west coast credit for their innovation.
I agree rap today is junk...and i think it died in 94 with WuTangs first album... |

the last truly great album was raekwon's "only built 4 cuban links" in 1995. there is still good hip hop today but you have search harder for it. this cat named Immortal Technique that i've been listening to for about 2 years now is truly impressive (and he's even better live).
the old guard of rap died in the end of 1992 -- this was the era where there were a few key songs and no matter when or where they came on (or where in the country you were) everyone knew the words and the lit up every party -- the last two songs of this era, were "Dwyck" and "nothing but a g thing", respectively. |
