i am always curious how cats got into hip hop?
PS this is a long posting
i am reletivly young i am 23 right now
so you can imagine that in 80´s i was much younger.
about 9 or so, coming from a township i could not understand englih let alone what the rapers were saying ha ha,
so i heard 2live crew and i would run around screeming shit like
"f*** bin a nigga f*** bin a nigga"
ha ha shit was funny as f***...
my uncle was bumping all that 2live crew, Eric B and Rakim, PE, LL "Radio",
so i was "hearing" hip hop in the 80 but not really listerning coz i could only understand very little..the od "f*** the police" and that typa shit
in the ninties 1990 to be exact i guess thats when i really got into hip hop
i was 13 then

I have all this shit on tape
i think after 1995 i started to bump less of the new shit coz
it was like all the cats dropping albums sounded exactly like all the shit
i had heard already
till Funckcrusher plus...i was like :-o
then it was rawkus ..i was also like :-o
they came with genuinly fresh shit and i think thats when i deviated and started following the so called backpacker movement...blackstar, wordsworth, el-p, sole, some anitcon, jedi, J-live, J-Zone,cage, non-phixion, rise, apathy etc etc
right now i am so heavy and deep into the the underground scene that i hardly know much else about what is bumpin out there
imagine when someone told me recently that Boot Camp click just dropped recently i was like what the f***..
i am a perfect example of what has happened in hip hop, there is so musch shit out that heads ..real heads is now bumping different shit...blah blah blah
