Austin Perez

Dylan Thomas
was going to say Mobb Deep, but you know your shit. Ice Cube, Dr Dre and early Snoop Dogg were also amazing. Shame hip hop now is not as it was back then
Jacob Jones
Logan Brown
Benjamin Evans
Charles Lewis
DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince, Slick Rick, Mos Def, Run DMC, Beastie Boys...
Luis Sanders

Snoop is the original Weezy. Once you get past his unique deliver, there's just no real meat on the bone cause the dude has zero to say.
Carson Thompson
Boogie Down Production, Nas, Lil Kim, De La Soul, the Roots...
Jonathan Russell
Lil Kim? Man...I don't think she holds up.
Josiah Sanchez
Boogie Down Production is some serious OG shit.
Adrian Roberts
...
Zachary Sullivan
I you like Mobb Deep check out Big L and AZ
Gavin Lee
Maybe just nostalgia
Christopher Miller
This is the only real hip hop album in this thread. The rest is just children pretending to listen to edgy music.
Michael Allen
Maybe not god tier but I think they tend to get overlooked at times.
Gabriel Campbell
Kool Keith is a good one. His shit with Ultramagnetic MCs is pretty classic old school New York hip hop and then he pivots in the 90s with Dr. Octagon catching the beginning of Dan the Automator's production run.
Adrian Young
You're saying listening to nas is being edgy? LOL
Landon Bell
You ain't a gangsta unless you listen to Common MUTHAFUCKA!

I would say 80s - mid 90s but that's me

Hunter Harris
I'd agree, 80s-90s
Parker Torres

Gavin Peterson
GOAT

James Murphy
I mean...to me it's anything pre-Chronic/Wu Tang, but yeah, I'm just speaking more to what kids these days think of as old school.
Ethan Ross
Didn't Pac burned these bitches in Hit 'Em Up?
Hudson Ward

Jordan Torres

Jose Bell
...
David Collins

Easton Ward
How old are you? I'm 20 and most of my friends don't know shit about old school lol
Parker Martin
It's Wu muthafucka's Wu-Tang muthafucka's!
Re-United/Triumph ya heard?
Jackson Wright
Illmatic is still one of the best rap albums ever hand down. Can't be outside of the top 10 in any discuasion. Midnight marauders by tribe is a hit. Black on both sides. The infamous, which was already posted, is one of my favorites.
Carson King
Cameron Jackson
Yeah I posted God's son but meant really most of Nas old shit. Very rugged, especially in his days of beef with Jay Z
James Lewis
Also, I'm very partial to ny. Always thought they produced the dopest hiphop
Kevin Reyes
Early 30s. Way too old to be posting here.
Spent my 20s listening to basically whatever I could get my hands on, whatever genre it was. Not as dedicated to it as I used to be though.
Jason Wood
I know jay gets alot of love as he should, but nas is much iller, if you will
Isaiah James
Yes agreed, but they are both legends and have put their time in the game for sure. I mean Jay is still making music
Wyatt Cox
The originator! Grey tapes > everything else
Christian Jackson
kool G,freddie foxxx,gangstarr,rakim,royce59,ODB.black moon,O.G.C,nine,FameMOP,Lady of rage,Nas.tha LOX,alchemist,diamond D,Lord finesse, Kool herc,G.master flash,Defari,Masta ace,AZ,Phi life cypher, O.C.biggie and pac etc etc..

Early 30s ain't shit on me. Pushing 40.
Benjamin Rivera
Well, when I was in my 20s, guys in their 30s helped turn me onto shit like Keith Murray, Pharcyde and KRS-One. So you pass it on.
I miss the old music blogs though. Not as many of those guys posting.
James Lee
Haha...you were the right age for hip hop turning into rap then. I was still too young to get it while it was happening
Ian Stewart
lemme teach you motherfuckers
Dylan Watson
True. I just remember listening to 2nd childhood on the subway the morning before my friend died. And I knew it had some kind of meaning. Ever since that day nas was one of my favs. And ever since that day I tried to be a better person
Dylan Barnes
Okay guys, is it weird for a hard core conservative to like hip hop?
Aiden Ortiz
I remember running home from school to catch Yo! MTV Raps with Dr. Dre and Ed Lover.
Ryder Rodriguez
Yeah that's crazy man , wish he would drop some more music though. His last album was alright
Ryder Davis
I found out about Nas and Immortal Technique through YouTube...nobody even showed me them lol its a shame. Wish more people respected the old school
Brandon Barnes
Last I heard from him was "the season" which was dope and he had a verse on triple beams dreams which was a little while back. You're right though man would love for him to come back
Dominic Brooks
I grew up in Dallas so for me it was Flava TV late night on channel 27. I wasn't even really into rap back then because I just didn't know. So my entry point was sort of No Limit and Dungeon Family shit transitioning into the Southern takeover.
Still have a hard time giving Houston rap credit because, like I said, I'm from Dallas.
Kayden Ramirez
Robert White
Youtube is pretty fucking great too though. You just don't get the same kind of context from talking to people who were around when something was released...or at least you don't get a person's individual view of something.
But tonight, while I've been dicking around online and posting in this thread, I've looked up Ultramagnetic Mc's "Funky" which is sort of the prequel to "California Love". Anyway, I just youtube takeover and it's been a great old school playlist.
Right now, EPMD's "It's My Thing" is playing.
Ian Phillips
I grew up in SC so it was just what was on cable and MTV. Since you mentioned Dallas:
Charles Thomas
Fair game.
Ethan Rogers
Charles Walker
Jesus fucking Christ...I haven't seen that video in YEARS.
Great post man...thanks.
Justin Mitchell
Bruh yes
Ian Scott
...
Jonathan Miller
Yeah man I completely agree I think an individual view helps a lot. For me at least, the comments on old shit helps too lol sometimes there are suggestions. But I'm going to check out Ultramagmetic Mc, never heard anything from that.
Jayden Rivera
Eli Jenkins
You're welcome. I remember riding around in a friend's Ford Probe and blasting Nemesis. He had a pair of 12s in the hatch. Nemesis sort of slips under the radar at times.
