I was just sitting around at work today thinking about how I was introduced to hip hop and rap, and then I started wondering how others were introduced. Finding out about gangsta rap isn't like anything else in the world. I had heard Run D.M.C. and they were a step above rapping cartoons. I'm not trying to represent the whole world, but to me, rap was always a little corny before I heard some gangsta shit.
My cousin always had better music than I did, so he originally gave me a Bone CD at church and I had to wait until that night before I could listen to it. It was jarring, to say the least.
I was from a strict Christian upbringing and songs like Mr. Ouija had a little redneck, church boy like whu-? The next track is Thuggish Ruggish Bone, though
I loved it.
The other CD he brought me was Doggystyle. My conscience was clear when I listened to this album
Mostly because I didn't understand half of the terms they were using lol It took me years to decipher the lingo...
So, were you down from day one? This is the place to share your rap timeline.
