Kool G Rap on His First Album Getting Protested by the Gay Community

[@FreeAgent797]

This cat is so underrated its not even funny. His name RARELY gets mentioned in GOAT conversations.

[@BigStickyNugs]

really? I always hear him mentioned...unless is some newbie who puts 2pac at number 1

[@noeljohnson1021]

Shiiiiiiiiiid Maybe yours. He is my GOAT

[@brandons2640]

he dont really got critically acclaimed “classic” albums, like most goats, thats why when people rank overall stats he doesnt come up mych, but talking straight lyrical ability and skill thats a whole nother convo, top 10

[@Lubenica224]

G Rap is on everybodys list here in nyc, real hiphop fans recognize that. The dudes you talking about are those people who just know about the mainstream culture and mention Pac Big and Em constantly. They have no clue how many rappers are or were around who were better.

[@david_king_music]

@@brandons2640 I think 4,5,6 is classic.

[@stanspliff92]

In no order it's rakim (the god), kane (the player), krs (the teacher), g rap (the gangster), chuck d (the revolutionary general). top 5. FACTS. after that it's opinion.

[@stanspliff92]

tochiRTA slick rick definitely took story telling to new levels but his 2nd album was kinda weak after that he was incarcerated and never really got back on course. He's up there with the greats but not top 5.

[@elbowgang9715]

No LL or The D.O.C

[@dipperuk]

"For anyone who could understand this, Rakim is to hip hop what Charlie Parker is to jazz. He didn't start it, but he absolutely revolutionized it and set the bar for every MC/musician's skills and technique afterwards."

[@mansamusa2012]

Respect ✊🏿

[@bamnjphoto]

I still got a Road to the Riches cassette in my crate of cassettes from my young music buying days

[@mansamusa2012]

I still had some of my cassettes up until 2008.

[@bamnjphoto]

I'm going to have to revisit that crate, I know I got some NY radio recordings Red Alert, Magic and Marley and maybe some Bobbito and Stretch Armstrong.

[@craigsutton7458]

My favorite og in the rap game period. Word play was stupid. I ALWAYS thought Nas sounded like him , even when the world was saying Nas sounded like Ra . And from this interview , one thing you can’t call him is a hater . He gave everyone their props . And his top ten list is the absolute truth .

[@UncleOut682]

This interview is sooo classic! Dead on!! Dam Vlad! Thank you!

[@korancebland]

Kool G Rap just gave the perfect summation on the legendary Rakim Allah.

Wish today's rap will have more options than what we can pick from today.

[@hoodedman07]

Top 5 underrated but greatest rappers ever, G Rap is one of my favorites

[@kizzmyazz3085]

KRS One, Rakim, Kool G Rap, Big Daddy Kane. Best Lyricists and most influential MCs ever

[@desalineredux435]

"I'm Fly" is my favorite Kool G Rap joint

[@jaybrown7434]

G Rap is rarely mentioned in conversations about top 5 MCs but he's easily one of the G.O.A.T.S. If you not familiar listen to Ill Street Blues and Fast Life with Nas.. G Rap is a beast.

[@kevinfuller7737]

Jay Brown only the real cats mentioned G Rap, fake cats.............

[@frankwhite1895]

Road to Riches my favorite rap song ever. Still sounds good today

[@reimourrpower9357]

"To me, it was the influence of hearing artists when I was younger. To me, they was one step into the future, outside everybody else at the time, and that was Melle Mel, Kool Moe Dee, Silver Fox from Fantasy Three. " Kool G. Rap; Rolling Stone (crrent issue 6/17)

[@hiphopjewels]

Even G. Rap had to be honest and say Nas took his style more from Rakim. Rakim mixed that "intelligence" with street smart, and that's what Nas did on his first album. No one wants to give Rakim his proper respect. I'm glad G. Rap was honest about that.

[@tonespacespace]

if any of y'all want some updated dope G Rap music..pick up THE GODFATHERS by Kool G Rap and Necro. It's a masterpiece.

wow,, straight up interview a living hip hop legend

[@ivanduvok]

vladimir didn't like the comment about pimping..normally he chimes in with a 'similar' life experience but on that one he was as quiet as a church mouse and quickly moved on..

[@weepoethics]

ivanduvok if you watch closely, there was a cut right after he spoke on it, maybe it'll be show later, you know how Vlad get down.

very level headed ... nice change of pace from Lord Jamar ... 😅😅😅 even this I like both interviews ... plus he talkin bars (in my Cassidy voice)

Where can one find the full interview ?

Word, Russel Simmons didn't sign Nas because he said he sounded like a Kool G Rap clone
