Some Girls by The Rolliing Stones ( worship ) was about and influenced by New York.

When The Whip Comes Down .."Miss You" studio 54 anthemish type song for disco etc...well The Black album sems Californai influenced.

Super Califragisexy

Two Nigs United for West Compton

Bob George gangster-ism

Dead On It..a dig at rappers but with a California rap feel or subject imho

The whole cd sems dark and gangtser rap influenced Ice T style ( who was the big thing then, and NWA) etc.( Bob George).

It has been said in print that it was a precursor to the myriad of California gangtser rap that follwed. Not saying rap followed Prince lol but that he took it there with the Bob George scenario

Rock hard In A Funky Place has California top down cruising written all over it.
Scholly D. from Philly was Rapping about Being a Gangsta back in late 85-86.TOO SHORT started His thing back in 82 way before Prince did "the Black Album" so He can't Claim the Cali Front because Too Short Beat Him by a Good 5 years on that front.Steely Dan's "Gaucho" has a Strong Cali Vibe as well but I could Name other Albums that reflect a place&space with the Act.

I didnt mean to say that it was THE first gangster rap record...I said it was in "print" that perhaps it was a precursor of many to follow--which is not too far fetched since many were influenced and took his "dirtines", popularity, and freedom to do what you want on record and did it themselves on wax etc.
