i grew up hearing mainly 90s west coast rap, old reggae, and funk music like zapp and roger and just lowrider oldies
it definitely impacted my current tastes in music
i feel like if you did, it’s a lot easier for you to understand and appreciate the influences that created hip-hop and opens your mind to the OG s***
