Theres alot do great hip hop.
Even today theres great artist
If you want to find the best stuff go to the early 90s like A Tribe Called Quest. Pharcyde is great in fact anything produced by DIlla and Qtip is great!
Pete rock cl smooth
Sample alot of oldies.
NwA early stuff is great , Dre was awesome with the beats used alot of records that his parents had and used them as samples
And the angry brash delivery of the group spoke about alot of the stuff that was around at the time if south LA that no one was paying attention to. Great stuff
Hip hop has contributed greatly to music as a whole

You can't sit down while this is playing! Saw Mitch & DW play in Melbourne, Florida 1966. They burned it down.

This has the Wall of Sound going with it. This is what we heard on the radio!! IMO far better than the ones that were overplayed!!!

Loved this song💕. Really keeps you moving to dance to it. The 45 sounds great. I add this song when doing housework . oh yeah now we're cooking big band music too😃. Doesn't get any better. Thanks for sharing

It's wierd how a banger like this never got played on the radio. The movie Hell Ride first introduced me to this song and it's nice to see Quentin pick it up. Totally fits his style.
