Golden Era of Hip-Hop (v2, i1)
Golden Era of Hip-Hop
Volume 2, Issue 1
“The African medallions, high-top fades and overalls all symbolized aspects of that era of rap music. It was the best time of my life. I found out how ladies were first, how to stop self-destruction, how to H.E.A.L. myself how knowledge is king. These lessons were given to me courtesy of my lyrical professors. They are lessons I carry today. They are lessons that have helped shape my identity. I will forever be indebted to rap music. It is the music that shaped my generation while I was growing up in the 1980s. I just want to say thank you to Chuck D, KRS-ONE, Queen Latifah, Main Source, Big Daddy Kane, De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest, Intelligent Hoodlum, Kool Moe Dee and so many others. Your lyrics live on through me, as well as so many others!
