Here's what some icons have to say about the book!!!
Ice-T: "Respect to Soren Baker for documenting the history of gangster rap in these pages. Some hate it. Some love it. But you can’t deny its brutal, hardcore honesty."
The D.O.C.: "History has so often been written by the victors, that you very rarely ever get the real story behind anything. So it’s really important to hear from the people that were there, which is exactly what Soren Baker shares in this book. He writes about it and he’s honest about it."
Xzibit: "Hip-hop changed the world. Gangster rap changed the narrative, and then changed the world again. Soren Baker has been a very integral part of documenting hip-hop on the West Coast for as long as I can remember. I don’t think anybody is more qualified to write this book."
Leslie “Big Lez” Segar: "Soren Baker has changed the perspective of gangster rap by putting his pen to paper. He has given hip-hop power, proven its potential, and made non-believers contemplate all of its possibilities. The truth in his writing leaves no stone unturned, something he's done again with The History of Gangster Rap. Soren doesn’t just champion hip-hop. He also reveals its flaws and its truths."

Chill Rob G is OFFICIAL and his album "Ride the Rhythm" is a CLASSIC... I play it to this day. As a Pittsburgh cat, back in `89, many of us knew immediately that Turbo B, who happens to be from Pittsburgh, & SNAP! jacked Chill Rob G's joint, which has always irritated me and still does. It's criminal that he doesn't receive royalties for it. Real heads knew and stll know the truth, though. Real talk.

[@daminharris3879]

YUPPP Ride da rhythm is a classic album dat gets slept on

[@barty2381]

I remember when Snap came out with that and I had the Chill Rob Gee version here in the U.K in the late 80s on vinyl , can't tell you how confused I was about that at the time!

[@moneyhouseblessin]

Court Is In Session 🔥🔥🔥

[@reidrothstein8027]

He was here to ROCK THE SHOW .... CLOCK THE DOUGH.... and let the WORDS FLOW

[@brianAsh3000]

A dope MC with a dope voice. Thanks Soren!

[@MindTrickedX24]

"Dull, void, without substance or content - these are the words of the rising son, surprising some who thought I was just another humdrum." MAN. Chill Rob G's pen was/is FIRE, and his voice and flow were amazing.

[@charlesjohnson1574]

He was and is very unique

FACTS

[@chemistryrussell]

Salute to one of the originators. This dude was revolutionary, refusing to buy into the gangsta phenomenon. I've always respect him.

[@messiahblackgod]

Definitely one of my favorite emcees. So back in 06' I moved to McKeesport a small town considered a section of Pittsburgh. Almost a year later I decided to move because the house I was in wasn't a good fit it turned out, so as I'm packing my shit I go down in the basement to see if there's anything I wanna take and that's when I discovered this box of miscellaneous stuff that I obviously hadn't noticed before. Looking through it I find all this old stuff from old concerts (programs, posters, pictures,etc), and other music related things as well as someone's family photos and things. Just when I was about to toss the whole box I find this SNAP concert program and some other SNAP memorabilia...I was bugging out like "oh shit I remember this joint"! not really thinking much else of it, that's when it dawned on me that some of the shit in this box was actually pictures of SNAP as a child! Apparently what I discovered later was that SNAP's Mom's lived in that crib before I did. By then 06' everybody knew about the Chill Rob G situation and me personally I felt like the SNAP lyrics was no where near as dope as Rob G's version...To this day I wish I would've kept that box tho...On another note, it was Duff Marlowe that discovered Gang Starr let's be clear....Peace to Chill Rob G! Much success on anything you put out Brotha🙏🏿💪🏿✊🏿

[@JUSLOFI]

For years I never understood how they were two versions of that song. It’s good to know that chill Rob G doesn’t understand either

[@ProducersAssembleMusic]

Mannnnnn.The Living Legend Chill Rob G In The Building. His Rhyme Flow Truly Off The Chain. Been Down With Him Since Day 1. He Did The Song "The Power " Before Snap Did It. This Was Crazy And Wrong How They Took Chill Rob G 's Song For Themselves And Blew Up Like That. Chill Rob G Owned That Song And The Power Was A Spinoff For The Song "Let The Words Flow" From His First Album "Ride The Rhythm". Hope To Hear More From This Hip Hop Living Legend. 🙏🏿🫡👊🏿🔥💯

Female rap group that came out in the mid 80’s. That Raising Kanan theme song was inspired by Frick N Frack’s Southside song. The original Just Rhymin Wit Biz song had Frick N Frack on it rhyming (the demo is on KZbin where you can here them at the end getting ready to rhyme).

[@tonewest211]

Fortunately for me I had the opportunity to see Chill Rod G waay back in 1989 at a place called "Skate Plus" in Fairhaven, MA. when I was 17yrs old, just as "Ride The Rhythm" was bubbling in the streets! MC LYTE & D-NICE we're on the card that night too & their performances were top notch even tho it was in a small standing room only venue that I had never been to prior to that show. Looking back now after 30 + yrs. Later I haven't seen any of those 3 acts who performed that night since 89. 😵 BTW I thought it was dope to see that on the back of the "Ride The Rhythm" album the fan club info was based out of Providence, Rhode Island 💯
