    i ain't all that old - but i most likely was making beats and writing rhymes way before RZA and GZA thought about doing it - and they are older than me - i have a thorough history of this shit - True Hip Hop heads who want answers need to ask questions - those who don't care can keep it movin

    i don't think that the 90's was better - Hip Hop is better and stronger today than it was yesterday - people just get lost in the variety

    Check out these documentaries SUNNY, real people from the hood discussing what went on in the early 90's and tell various stories that inspired Hip Hop songs. It's interesting to learn things from them about my neighborhood of Harlem which I wasn't aware of before.







    Article about the stampede of 1992 at City College with Heavy D and Puffy, I used to live next to the school: http://news.google.com/newspapers?ni...pg=2936,530701

    thanks for sharing - however, i don't know what Alpo and a city college stampede has to do with Hip Hop

    i grew up in the BX

    Bam,Red Alert,Jazzy Jay, Just Ice, Donald D, Scorpio, Rahiem, Etc... used to be in the crib - T.R. Love came to the house to help me with my Cubase problems back in the day -

    i used to program drums at Bayside Sound in queens at age 9 with this dude



    David Eng - and Steve Salem (R.I.P.) - look em up -

    not braggin and shit, but i seen a million and one changes happen in Hip Hop....so if anyone wants to discuss the history and ask questions, step up

    from 86 to 89 was even iLLer to me - the 90's brought a darkness to Hip Hop - it got tougher - before that, Hip Hop was Fun,informative, and the MC's were out to drop jewels and teach lessons mostly there was always a moral to story
    Onyx and Mobb Deep really changed the tone - and people who were rolling dice in the lunchrooms, selling cracks, and playin ball decided to become MCs all of a sudden even more so -

    there is allot of garbage out today - there was allot of garbage out back then too - now today, you have even more garbage and even more good shit out - it's easier to spot the garbage - as time passed, groups made it easier for regular for mediocre art to be accepted -

    know what it is? cos nobody talks about the wack shit from back in the day. nobody remembers it. theres always the same ratio of weak to well made music.
