    That s*** came out in 1990 they didnt survive for the rest of the decade for a reason: Because they couldnt progress further. By the time 92 hit them 80s rappers were a lost cause because rap was already dramatically changing.

    Real progression is Ice Cube with AMW in comparison to NWA.

    Scarface progressed with the diary in comparison to them geto boyz tapes

    Kool G Rap influenced Nas and even tried to get Def Jam to sign him. Nas is featured on Kool Gs most famous song for a reason. He was doing the mafiaso/organized crime themed rap that Nas, Jay Z, Biggie etc. ended up adopting from Kool G

    Kool G laid out the blueprint tbh

    That's about when rap got taken over by the labels so it makes sense they'd push them out and put up their own puppets

    This is an interesting take.

    yeah he did, and his 90s s*** i like more than his 80s s***. 80s golden age sounds dated with most of the guys using certain flows, cadence in their voices etc.

    kool g rap had similar subject matter on the dj polo albums but he just had a different rapping style. live and let die has some real gangsta s*** on there, its just the style on how he delivered it.

    I feel like 80s rappers were just rapping to hype up block parties and house parties except political mfs like Public Enemy nem
