But thanks to “Fantastic Voyage,” his gravity-defying cornrows became the most famous haircut in America, second only to that of Kramer from Seinfeld. Based on a sample of the 1980 hit of the same name by the Dayton, Ohio-based funk outfit Lakeside, “Fantastic Voyage” was the first song to make gangsta rap totally amenable to white America. State of Mind.” The locales are disparate and miles apart, but the penetrating sensory details, the intricate and deftly rapped lyrics, and the cutting insight are unmistakably of the same ilk. It is the culmination of a youth spent cataloging fatalities, ducking stray shots, and watching twisted fingers result in stiff bodies. It is an expose on the detrimental effects of living in a place where a truce expires without notice, where announcing your grandmother’s address may prove fatal. Throughout, Lamar’s voice cuts through both of the song’s manic, teeth-rattling suites; aggressive and riddled with pain, occasionally on the verge of breaking.

Even if you are in the middle of Hollywood Boulevard, this song slows down everything around you. Ahmad produced it himself (with an assist from Redfoo of LMFAO), which part of why we forgive his blatant imitation of The Pharcyde. Let's focus instead on lead rapper Son Doobie a/k/a The Porno King. On “Bow Wow Wow” he compares himself to Tina Turner, Barney Rubble, Sigourney Weaver, Colt Seavers, Fire Marshall Bill, Harry Houdini and Tonto. He's a good speller and he gets retarded like Helen Keller.

Old School Hip Hop Jams/Old School Jams, Vol. 6
MC Eiht sets his narrative in the mid-1980s, before Compton culture went mainstream, before the Crips and Bloods had their own rap albums, back when the gangsters C-Walked to James Brown. When he was Death Row's last man standing, Snoop Dogg found a new home at Master P's No Limit Records. But as a No Limit soldier, Snoop was expected to churn out tunes by the pound, just like the rest of the team. Although his first No Limit album, Da Game Is to Be Sold, Not to Be Told, felt like a byproduct of Master P's production schedule, his follow-up, No Limit Top Dogg, was much stronger. Mainly because Snoop hooked up with Dr. Dre and Nate Dogg again for the first time since the Death Row days.

Tickets can include a bus connection into downtown San Francisco from the stop in Emeryville. Other California stops include Redding, Sacramento, San Jose, Salinas, San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara. ● Pacific Surfliner This is a busy network of trains that run from San Diego in the south via LA to as far north as San Luis Obispo.

“Mama, I know you said that you wanted a record you could listen to/With no cussing and shit/I tried/But I still gotta do this! ” We'll never know what Mama Quik thought when she got to the part about “raggedy-ass bitches,” but it's still a good bet that this is her favorite song. Its genius is that it's about a party where everything goes wrong-“Cigarette burns in my plush/Empty beers bottles in the brush/And my bitch acting like a lush”—and yet everything about it feels right. In which DJ Quik protege Mausberg gets mauled by the mold. "I need to lay down, turn the lights out-that's what I get from fuckin' with some shit that I don't know about," raps the shroomed-out Maus. This is pure Talkbox funk, a DJ Quik groove clinic that heralded dope joints to come.
In 2012 an internet addict with too much time on his hands determined the exact date of Ice Cube's “Good Day” by making a list of everything that's mentioned in the song, and using a highly fallible method of deductive logic. Well, here it is, the symphonic masterwork of one Lawrence Muggerud, aka DJ Muggs. He cooked up the beat in a tiny apartment in Hollywood that he shared with DJ Aladdin of Low Profile. In one room, Aladdin, WC, Coolio and Crazy Toones were making We're in This Thing Together," and in the other Cypress was making demos for their first album.

The song's venom comes not from the rhymes, but from the juxtaposition of the song's oily, globular bass and Eazy's high-pitched taunts. Making demands on Al Davis was suicidal, but this was a year when Ice Cube spared no one his wrath. 50 years ago Fairfax Village was a hangout for bell-bottoms and longhairs. Twenty-five years ago Guns N' Roses dirtied the booths at Canter's Deli. In 2012, the street was claimed once again, this time for a crew of multicolored teenagers who made a career out of loitering in the skate shops that proliferated among the Hasidic stores near Canter's. One week after “Sandwitches” appeared as an internet-only single on Odd Future's website, the crew played their first proper show at the Low End Theory in Lincoln Heights.
Most intersections have dropped curbs, and some have audible signals for people crossing the streets. Taxis and ride-hailing services like Uber and Lyft can be found throughout the state. Municipal parking meters and sidewalk pay stations may take coins, credit cards and/or payment via apps.
He even brought rising star Xzibit along for the ride on this West Coast classic. Coupled with Dre's 2001 later that year, the West Coast was definitely back in the house. What do you do when wealth, once a believed theriac, becomes a toxin?
Because there is so much tension embedded in this song and yet it couldn't be more relaxed. It takes a conscious effort to replace C’s (and C sounds) with B’s—at least initially. Eventually the oral affront to the opposition becomes an inextricable aspect of your lexicon. YG didn’t invent the switch, but he’s the first to expose the lingo to the masses so brazenly. “Bicken Back Being Bool” is his answer to DJ Quik’s “Loked Out Hood.” The narrative isn’t as cohesive, or chronological, but the conflict is the same.
It didn’t matter who was rapping because by that time, the slinky whine of Dre’s Mini-Moog was single-handedly running the West Coast. The ratchet era needed a Nate Dogg, a crooner capable of delivering the sexually explicit lyrics of his rap counterparts more melodically, transmuting the potentially offensive into hilarious and self-aware absurdity. Ty Dolla $ign slid into the role as one-third of L.A.’s unofficial ratchet triumvirate alongside DJ Mustard and YG. Originally released on Mustard’s 2013 mixtape, Ketchup, “Paranoid” is Ty’s most indelible contribution to the West Coast canon, the closest anyone has come to “Ain’t No Fun (If the Homies Can’t Have None)” in the 2010s.
MC Eiht lends his lyrics as much as he does his authority as one of L.A.’s greatest gangster rappers. His inclusion displays Lamar’s reverence as much as it does his intellect. Eiht’s verse, by design, smacks of the past that Lamar spends his verses rallying against.
The group’s debut album, “House of Pain,” featuring its Top 10 single, “Jump Around,” is in the pop Top 15. He never strays from his role as reporter, and like any good reporter he returned from his travels with images and stories. After bouncing from N.W.A. in '89 because he wasn't being paid what he was due, Cube quickly fell out with former mates Eazy E and MC Ren.
