You are a 'G' if you are here 💯

[@mfasiscrackbeats3543]

criminally underrated pioneer of ‘gangsta rap’ and a hip hop living legend. killer classic from the golden age.

[@eganc1976]

Sucks he didn't have producers and cash to elevate.... either rep NYC or LA or nada

[@mostaphaba3151]

I agree

[@hubertyarborough]

This song is on the Nightmare on Elm Street soundtrack. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@robinson01902]

Yes. A Nightmare on Elmstreet: Part 5

[@jowhit226]

No shit? Wow.

[@debusschere4817]

Didn't know that that's classic! 💯

[@dinosowermethod]

Yes the first actual gangster rapper

[@panama8009]

Saw Skooly first time at the Fever in the Bronx fall 1985. I was in my teens and seen him open up for Cutmaster DC, "Brooklyns in da house". Damn, looking back, wow I saw a Gangster Rap pioneer and legend.

[@RonaldJames-eo2hc]

The first Gangsta rapper ever.

[@davidsinclair1971]

Schoolly D is one of the greatest rappers of all time, there’s no doubt about it.

[@edo-j1784]

I agree, he does not get the recognition he deserves! His is arguably the FIRST "Gangsta rapper"and he comes from the East Coast! I wish Schoolly D did live shows, I live about an hour and change from Philly.

[@SeisanStnc]

@@edo-j1784 well Ice T credits Schoolly with inventing gangsta rap -- hard to get more cred than that!

[@esseen100]

He raps with authority. Like he's been doing it since he was born.

Schooly D's voice is so unique, especially in that era

[@MichaelPayne786]

Fun fact: My pop pop and Schoolly were neighbors and he even went to his funeral.

[@fantasyguru26]

Not Ice Cube, Ice T was first on the west. But he admits he bit Schoolly's style@@rainandthangz

[@az-chill4626]

​@fantasyguru26 ice T never bit schoollys style. Psk inspired him to make 6 in the mornin . Plus it's not biting if you give homage

[@Jason-lv4uu]

​@@az-chill4626yep

[@infamousc9999]

His multi syllable rhymes are crazy especially for his time

[@edo-j1784]

Heck Yeah! His style was SO different than anything that was out at the time. I feel Schoolly and DJ Code Money should drop a new joint but keep the same style he always used...Lots of old school artists are coming back and doing new records especially for their fans....AND Krs One is STILL making new albums, just dropped a new one...those are my 2 favorite MC'S of all time.

[@romdog67]

rhymes literally rolled off his tongue....

If SCHOOLY D WAS STILL RAPPIN TODAY HE WOULD SHUT DOWN THE REST OF'EM

[@jowhit226]

This is exactly my hip hop vibe right here. Schoolly D embodies it perfectly on these old school jams.

[@B0NES1000]

SO true. The soul, groove and get up and dance party vibe was in the vocals, the tones of the vocals and the tunes, Days when the girls got up and danced to this even if the lyrics were larging it, they larged it in a style that was true party style, bite or burn the funk was always flexing. Now that vibe has been lost to ego overtaking the reason to dance.

My great-grandmother owned the Yeadon Theater until the mid 80's. First time I have ever seen footage of the place. Glad I was able to find this video :'). Thanks Schoolly D

Nice way to say he bit his style

[@thatundergroundflavorrareo3194]

@@openEyes60 At least he did it respectfully by playing “6 in the Morning” over the phone for Schoolly before releasing it to get his approval. Still, I like Schoolly D better than Ice-T and as the originator of that style, he deserves way more credit.
