Old School Part 1
• Written by YLG
I studied the whole entire genre and art of Hip Hop
Its roots started from the New York burrough, in South Bronx
It wasn't just rapping, freestyling, and poems being spit
Hip Hop always had dance, and it started from politics
Lets take it back to 79, 38 years of the rap game
Up to 89, the 80s, Hip Hop's very first decade
The 80s kicked off by the Sugar Hill Gang, back then they were real hot
Then came African Bambatta, as they came and made the Planet Rock
Then Kurtis Blow put on a show, and then Grandmaster Flash gave us The Message
To the rap game, and we all learned the lesson
On and popping at his best, you had LL Cool J in the east
Now we hip hopping to the west, when you had Ice-T
And the rap game was runned by Run D.M.C., running Hip Hop
They told us to Walk This Way, and they started Hip Rock
Hip hop and Rock, hip hop was dominated by blacks back then still
Then came a group of white boys, who were beast and really ill
They needed a License to be ill, as they made a place into Hip Hop's residence
The OG lyricist and G.O.A.T. MC,
Rakim , along with Eric B, and were Paid in Full with Dead Presidents
Then came the Public Enemy, Chuck D, who started political rap
You can try and Fight their Power, but It Takes a Nation to Hold them Back
Then Boogie Down Productions and KRS-1 came in the rap game stomping
Some Negroes With Attitudes came in the rap game, coming Straight Out of Compton
You had Dougie Fresh introduce beat boxing into the rap game
Slick Rick had the best story telling, Kool Rap really had rap game
then rap was ruled by Big Daddy Kane, Long Live the Kane
The late 80s came, which was the start of Hip Hop's Golden Age
Honarable mentions, femcees such as Roxxane and Mc Lyte kept rap going like a bullet
Then Salt N Peppa shook up the rap game, as they continued to Push it
Then Biz Markie and The Fresh Prince made the final Hip Hop Hits and,
Hip Hop was still in its Golden Age, but thats how the first decade ended
