Mc Pooh was one of my favorites back in the day.

During my brief high school stint with rap, I jumped into this which I enjoyed...
It was just pretty chill.

Yeah MC Pooh was good.

Damn, this thread has me going on a youtube listening spree of some oldschool memories.

One of my favorites is "Natural Born Killaz."

Great Song.

Aww, man, its funny you made this thread now; I was just thinking about old school shit earlier. Went through my phone and listened to this masterpiece:

There's so much old music that's amazing. Some of my favorite classics are Nothing But a G Thang, Dre Day, Boyz n the Hood (if you've never heard the G-Mix, do it now), Deep Cover, Gin n Juice, What's My Name, Let Me Ride, Real Mother****in Gz, Gangsta Gangsta, **** the Police, Thuggish Ruggish Bone, It Was a Good Day, Check Yoself, For the Love of Money and, of course, pretty much anything by 2Pac or BIG. I don't think most would consider everything BIG rapped to be "gangster rap" per se, but you can't talk about old school shit and not mention him. Also, a little classic Outkast always goes down smooth.

I was also listening to LL Cool J's Mr. Smith album the other day. That's a ****ing classic, as well.

Did anyone here ever listen to The DOC? I've only ever listened to one CD- No One Can Do It Better, but it was pretty damn good. This is a good track from that album:

Anyway, I feel like I've done a whole lot of talking. I'll just wrap it up and leave you with a couple of my favorite, low key jams from way back.

The D.O.C. would have been the best rapper of all time if not for that car accident. That entire record is banging. Beautiful But Deadly was great.

If you ain't down with the Gheto Boys.
