speed157 nice post. Dilla and Pete Rock rule. Forgive me if some of these have been posted. Don't have the patience to go through 8 pages.

Some of my faves.






















That's enough for one post. I could do this all day.
 
^ I'm not really a fan of Ice cube but i do like that tune. 👍

Seeing that someone had posted the classic 'Scenario' by LONS, got me thinking to back in the day... me and friends had just got our tickets to see LONS at the Cue club (i think that's where it was.. long time ago, about 19yrs) in Birmingham (UK), was really excited to be going, but then found out they'd literally just broken up on YO MTV, and had canceled the tour (Proper gutted).... Anyway a good friend of mine that was due to attend the concert with us sent me a vid on FB the other day (not this exact same vid, but of the same event). Leaders REUNITED!!!!! :D

Case of the PTA + Scenario:



Damn!!! what i would have done to be there to witness it in person.

Can't beat the Beastie Boys with Licensed to ill. R.I.P. Adam "MCA" Yauch.

Ice Cube - Today was a good day."

I have to like that too.
 
Can't believe no one has posted any AZ or Pharoahe Monch joints. They have got to be the two of most underrated and best of all-time.

The only place I know where that's from is NFS Underground 2.
 
If you like Samurai Champloo, check out the late Jun Seba, known as Nujabes. He and Shing02 did all the music for it. e22.com

Anyway, I love when Open Mike Eagle does live rhymes.

 
OME is a sharp dude, really enjoyable.

Here's a little jam I still catch myself playing randomly, usually after a long night at work.

N.W.A Sa Prize (Part 2).
Love it the beat, flow and lyrics go together perfectly, N.W.A is probably the best old school hip hop group there is. R.I.P. Eazy E.
*Language warning*
 
@ AOS.
Very nice. 👍

I'm really appreciating this at the moment:

Elements of Hip Hop
'Hip Hop Aint The Same'



Never a truer word spoke, Mikey D. :) 👍
