Little story for you all, as im listening to schoolly d right now, my mind reverses back to 1986 a gig in manchester UK, Schoolly was supporting Big Audio Dynamite, he comes on stage in a yellow track suit wth gold chains, people me included just didnt get it, was a completely alien new fresh sound that didnt go down well with the audience, lots of boos however schoolly just took them in his stride, fast forward two years when Hip hop hits the UK and Im listening and vibing to a track of his on the radio I remembered thinking that the guy was the same dude I saw two years earlier, lol still loving his work today some 30 + years on.

Straight Outta Philly, the originator of gangster rap himself, Schoolly D, who interestingly also worked on the Hunger Force Theme. His first four albums are all great examples of the hip-hop old school, though also suffers the same lyrical limitations of the time, his later albums don't help out either. But the reason I keep coming back is the beats. Yeah, Schoolly was okay on the mic, but put him behind the boards and you got yourself one of the best of the old school generation. Just go check out his single "Gucci Time", you'll know what I mean.
