Roxanne Shante  I am not African. Africa is in me, but I cannot return.

CinisterCee said: These are all good recommendation, but I realized... dancerella likes alot of new wave and electronic beats, so maybe we could recommend some mid-80s rap that's more drum machine driven.
 Yes, CC that's what i'm talking about! I would love something old skool with some kinda new wave/ electro beats. Should I check out Mantronix?? How about Man Parrish? I heard that's another good one. Thanks so much! | |

If I was stuck on a deserted island like Gilligan, the following 5 Old School Rap CD's would HAVE to be w/ me:
1)Pete Rock & CL Smooth "Mecca & The Soul Brother" 2)Diamond D "Stunts, Blunts & Hip Hop" 3)Big Daddy Kane "Long Live The Kane" 4)Public Enemy "It Takes A Nation Of Millions....." 5)Geto Boys "Grip It!! On That Other Level"  | |

Since you're looking for CDs, anything by by The Egyptian Lover, Run DMC, or Whodini....artists that actually made albums. However, the best stuff is available only on 12 Inches. Also pick up "Street Jams: Electric Funk" volumes 1-4. There are a lot of jams on those that you will only find on 12 Inches.

"Top Billin" is one of my favorite beats EVER! But the Audio Two album overall isn't hittin'. That is a good one, ain't it? Were they the first to use it? | |

Actually, after consulting The Breaks myself I know the answer The beat comes courtesy of The Honeydrippers (not the Robert Plant group) song, Impreach the President. | |

"Impeach The President" was a popular breakbeat to extend during live shows for years previous, but I think the first person to maximize the sampling technology and use the drums would have been Marley Marl.. on MC Shan's "The Bridge".  | |

Did you know the "Top Billin" pattern was actually a mistake? They were trying to get it to loop properly and that's how their programming came out.  | |
