Philly hip hop You should know all about!

[-----]

Let make this clear at the outset: new york= hip hop's # 1 city.

Philly thing is soul. PERIOD.

Philly was hip hop 2nd city a quick second but that title goes to LA.


These are a few raps I like:

Steady b-I get physical (Marly Marl prod.) People don't know that Marly Marl got is recording career started by signing to a label owned by hustler from Philly.



Schooly D- Parkside 5-2

I love this song just as much as PSK. A PHILLY Classic 100% gangster. PSK, GUCCI TIME and this song inspire Dr. DRE, Ice T and them west coast dudes.





Cool C- Juice Crew dis

Nice little story behind this record. This was a Marly Marl dis Mc shan and shauntte
Dis.



Steady b- Serious

Heavy story behind this record. Allegedly KRS ONE almost gotby steady's people. The squashed it and made this song together.


This should get you started more to come in enjoy.

tuff Crew- My part of town

The only rap group to have two black dudes, two Puerto Ricans and a redheaded white Dj. This was a Huge hit in Philly and Miami too allegedly. All the oldheads in
Philly know this record. Classic.

This is a Philly CLASSIC. Technically, this group is from Camden, NJ but it was huge it in Philly. CedGee from ultra magnetic produce this along with "b-boy document" which is even better.

KrownRulers -b boy document CedGee production. Some of the best rap ever.

This shyt before my time man. I thought you were going be posting OBH or Quilly Millz in here
The youngstas use to be with some dude who lived on my grandma block, I saw them one time like
Other than that I didn't really get into rap until wu tang hit the scene, Philly rap was basically dead around that time I think until beans and them came along
