Classic track he released post jail

One of the coolest voices ever, switches between NY and London mid-word, could listen to him say anything

He had two features on ‘Who Made The Sunshine’

WSG giving him props

Definitely is hip hop hall of fame material

80's rap is super slept on honestly

His music is so smooth

People have payed homage to him multiple times.

Hell, he was on a song with Chamillionaire back in the day.

Interpolation here as well:

treat ha like a prostitute

it's 2021 and niggas ungrateful

legend

music aged really well

He‘s literally Snoop Dogg‘s father

To answer your question His prime was before people who are 30+ now were born but he was definitely an innovator

I wish he didn’t get deported the second time maybe things woulda been different but I remember reading somewhere JD wanted to work with him for so long and jail had broke his motivation, even tho they made a few songs

Imagine Slick Rick on Neptunes/Ye/JD beats in the early 00’s.

But yeah Slick Rick is timeless

I’d say his accent is way more to the American side than British side personally

Another One

Wish he kept going but he sounded like he wasn’t feeling the direction rap was going subject wise along with jails effect on his creativity along with him getting deported in the early 2000’s

when he matched a prime andre and big boi on one of the greatest songs kast ever did
