The West Coast version of Big L

These were the best rappers from Oakland at the time all on one song which will never be done again and Rappin Ron killed all them nikkas.

I always wondered how Plan B who I never heard rap before got that big ass mural on 101st and E-14th but Rappin Ron don't have one. He should have one somewhere in the 80's.

Thizz was a movement and was the biggest movement on the West Coast at the time. No other label had that many acts and was getting love in the Midwest too. Thizz was about to blow up. I'll always believe that if he made a video for this shyt every label would've came calling

Plan B was EXTREMELY close with graffitti legend Mike Dream (RIP). When B got killed, Dream hit up that spot on E-14th...so it was a case of B being play cousins with Dream...if Ron had a graf connection he probably would have gotten a piece done too.

Good looking out. That makes sense. I'm surprised Kragen Auto which is now Auto Zone never painted over it. nikkas probably burn that shyt down if they did.

Rappin Ron over Ant Banks production . He got mad love from me out in the Midwest. I used to stan dangerous crew to a degree

Dream was close friends (and in the same graf crew) with VOGUE, another bay area graf legend and a good friend of mine.

Rappin Ron over Ant Banks production .

Ant Banks production at that time was unfu*kwittable (and yes, I understand that PeeWee and others helped create those sounds)...

Very few rappers that rap about street shyt have that gift that Ron and Big L had. It's like them nikkas was too nice to ever get their break. Right when they were on the cusp of getting it they died. Them nikkas could've shaped and shifted hip hop.

Dame said he was about to sign him. Big L with the Def Jam distribution would've been a sure thing back in 99.
