I’m feelin’ like a little old school

Cause I’m so cool and ya know I so rule

So if ya want to get down let me show ya the way

Cause I’ll be a true playa on this mothafreakin’ day

Representin’ Shaolin to full effect check one check two

Ya bettah recognize cause my lyrics ring true

I just bring IT to the very next level

Cause my name is D and I’m the runnin’ rebel

So let urself go cause ya might be in for a surprise

This crazy ass writer can rap now open your damn eyes

If you actually read that, so be it. :lol: I do have talent but I’m not about to be making any records these days. Though my Hard Hits colleagues seem to feel I should’ve been a rapper and challenged the Blizzard. I’ll just leave that to them I guess. More like a book or two. We’ll just have to see where this crazy year takes us. 

In any event, I really did feel like going back. Wayyyyyy back to the days of Slick Rick and Doug E. Fresh. I remember hearing these names as a kid and would be like mesmerized. Ah. But the talented individuals they were rang true in the rap game.

Here are a couple I like and I’m sure plenty of other peeps do as well.

Slick Rick: “Children’s Story“  this is a pretty classic video and the lyrics are just off the hook.

Slick Rick N’ Doug E. Fresh: “Ladi Dadi-Live“  the fuckinngggg best! Well, one of ‘em anyway if you appreciate oldschool in its finest art form. Hey. Dre and Snoop’s cover was pretty good on The Chronic but nothing beats the original act. Listen to Doug E. Fresh’s classic beat box.

Slick Rick: “Teenage Love“  this is solid. Has that classic vibe to it which puts you in a different area code.

Slick Rick: “Behind Bars” this is a pretty cool video with some excellent lyrics including the classic “this type of sh*t happens every day” from Ladi Dadi.

Doug E. Fresh: “I-ght (Alright)” ehhhhhhhh ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh aiiiiiiiiiiiigggghttttttt!!!!! nothing else needs to be said.

Lil Vicious fea. Doug E. Fresh: “Freak” this kinda takes me back. That beat box is just ridiculous.

Hope you enjoyed this oldschool throwback edition.
