Not really controversial

west coast hip hop was still influenecrd by post-disco, dance music back then

It was fun but it wasn’t people spitting. Cube and Tha DOC were the first respected rap star lyricists the west.

Early 80s rap in general was trash except for a few songs

Most 80's rap outside of the east coast was kind of corny. ESP. early to mid 80's

Early 80s rap was trash all around let's keep it real.

When cmw and quik came into peak production it was clear there was levels between the originals and dudes like quik and cmw

Hip hop became more than just a kick and a snare

Absolutely not. NYC had some dope 80s shyt.
Don't let Planet Rock and Rapper's Delight fool you

mc eiht = albert be4 he became mc gusto..

eiht.. was a east coast rap head.. die hard ..thats why alot of cmw shyt sounded like epmd

he did everything he could to get in the rap game him n snoop useta battle when he got shipped to poly.. then came back to compton high...

he from spook town his mom n dad didnt play that ... pops moved across town.. moms stayed n compton...he from a good family that eventually fail apart thats the only thing that seperates him from albert..

they was droppin

nwa blew the very group lonzo had which didn't believe in...

eiht was there like albert tryin 2 get on ...then lonzo said if u cant beat em join.. here comes eiht with a new disguise...

acronyms .. nwA... CMW...

Then cmw meets... dj unknown... aka trust us jones...

eiht first appearance outside complation ... with slip and unknown on production...

like trust us... unknown took advantage of cmw... nikka had a german sheppard worth more than what he gave eiht, chill ...ant capone n mike t...

eiht can talk that shyt now kuz he made it ...

be4 "albert" was jus tryin 2 get on by anymeans... he wasnt talkin that wack shyt then

Russ Parr has to fight MC Eiht for dissing Bobby Jimmy & The Critters.

 

[Harry Sax]

This isn't even an opinion its a fact. 99% of early 80s west coast rap is unlistenable

The hate the west got wasn't "east coast bias" the first time most people heard shyt from the west it was deadass the wackest shyt they ever heard in they life

Too short must be the 1%

russ almost 70 yrs old.. he has lapped anything eiht ever did and got all his publishing... something eiht dont have

hell eiht needed russ one point when russ was at kday..everything i said bout eiht.. russ will say that n then some...

crazy russ was his own boss when he was making music had his own label and everything...

This stuff yes. Brehs are grouping NWA or at least eventual members as early 80s. Just Dre and Arabian Prince was doing something in 84.

Unless there's a mix up of "early 80s" vs "early" 80s.

It’s a lot of stuff nikkas never heard of

Like dj quiks brother in law Billy couvson

This nikka predates a lot west coast acts

this from 77

He had quik in the studio real early that’s where Quik learned how to turn something out of nothing
