OLD SCHOOL
Old School rap is the fist rap music that was commercialised, it is argued that it might have ended in 1984 due to changes in rapping techniques but some people say that old school rap ended in the 90's close to the 2000's because they were new rappers rising to fame with their own techniques .
Old school rap in the 80's was made of rappers like Young MC, MC light, Rakim, Run DMC, Afrika Bambaataa including many others, in the 90's there was Snoop Dogg, Lauryn Hill,Ice Cube, Jay-z, Nas, Tupac(the great) and the NWA the list goes on.
In old school hip hop(rap) the rappers that makes people say that its better than new school
are for example Nas in his songs like "one mic" in which he talked about things going on in the hood violence, the police etc this is one song to listen to lyrically strong with a message behind it and it is a song that is about stuff that we see in our everyday life, NWA in their song fuck the police in which they were talking about police brutality in the hood how the police was mistreating african americans
though the police said that NWA's song was not to be played anywhere it's because they knew that it was based on the truth, another example of how good the old school songs were is Dear Mama by Tupac which is a song about his mom and how his mom suffered raising him up which is a song that most black people who didn't grow up in rich families can relate to.
Im an old school fan because oldschool rap wasn't only drugs and sex like waht we have today it was also about things that are in eveyday's people's lives it was not about showing sports cars or about exipensive mansions it was about rappers going back in the hood checking up on things and letting the world know whta's up.
