Street Songs is the prequel to Straight Outta Compton and Gangsta Rap.

I am a little bit but at the same time, it kind of was. In a way. Slightly. Aw fukk it, u know what I mean.

Rick was making music for the hood and talking bout shyt like police brutality but in a way nobody had done before.

Street Song is 1 of those albums my aunts and uncles played while playing card games and reminiscing about the 80's.

 

[Doobie Doo]

And programming those early 80s synths was hard to do cuz they ain't have all the screen and menu options we have now. That is a fightable offense

Lady T also.said that as the opener on that tour Prince made Rick work twice as hard and of course his ego couldn't take that

But man, these dudes could compose a song. They are TRUE musicians

In a way Prince low key co produced Street Songs album if Rick was using his presets
