Looking for more old school rap to listen too... I am getting tired of all the stuff on my Zune. Here is most of what I currently listen to.... UGK Tupac Bone Thugz 4Tay Eazy E Geto Boys Fat Pat Public Enemy Lord of the Underground Menace to society Nas Luniz 5th Ward boyz Scarface South central cartel NWA Warren G A Tribe called quest I have heard most of the "classics", and I am struggling to find new "old" music right now. (btw, Thanks to a thread a few weeks back I picked up some Blac Monks stuff, FANTASTIC. THAT is what I am looking for, but more of it.)
eightball and MJG, do or die, criminal element, 20 to life, ESG, crucial conflict, celly cell, street military, mc breed, krs1... and who could ever forget......(nsfw language) <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/0noYoJS1Wks&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x3a3a3a&color2=0x999999"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/0noYoJS1Wks&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x3a3a3a&color2=0x999999" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

EPMD "Strictly Business". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ttmM4sR_cPI years of listening to Stephon Marbury interviews never clicked the fact that he sounds just like Eric Sherman.
Your collection is similar to mine. It's not old, but 3-2 has a CD out called Fatt Domino that was done a few years ago but finally released. It's good stuff. As for old stuff you might like: Twinz - Conversation (Warren G produced most of it) Eightball - Lost MJG - No More Glory Street Military - Don't Give A Damn The D.O.C. - No One Can Do It Better Above the Law - Uncle Sam's Curse
De la Soul? That's some hiphop! Than be sure to download Pete Rock and Cl Smooth's tracks so as the discography of Run DMC I don't know if you mentioned Wu Tang Clan and Big L, Big Pun also... If you look for underground hip hop I suggest Immortal Technique, Dead Prez, Hasan Salaam, Crooked I ( and new Slaughterhouse movement ) above all. Hip hop is beautiful, long live this wonderful art.

Thanks! I have heard the Pete Rock, De La Soul, Wu Tang stuff(All classic stuff for sure) but I am putting together a pretty damn good list with your suggestions... I am really digging ESG.
This is pretty much my favorite old school rap song.

You kids are funny. You don't have a friggin' clue what old school is. Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five Parliament-Funkadelic Run-D.M.C. 2 Live Crew LL Cool J and historical reference must include The Sugarhill Gang class dismissed.
