LOCC – Tha Most Gangsta

God’sStrength asked:


Eazy-E or Ice-T? Old school west coast gangsta rappers. They are legends in hip hop. Almost everybody got their game from these two pioneers of hip hop believe it or not. These were G’s, knew how to get money with ease. They lived the life, that a lot of rappers talk about and ain’t never done jack! Anyway was more of a gangster in their day? Who was a better rapper as well? Eazy E or Ice-T? I admire them both. Old school rappers lead the way!

Emanuel E asked:


As a fan of rap growing up, I wonder why. I can understand about the more contemporary stuff that’s been going on for the past five or so years, but in general, people give hip-hop a bad name. Apart from subject matter, which I am aware of, people get on the style because of the fact that songs use samples of other songs. By that, I mean the beats, but I have no problem with it. Also, people seem to say that it isn’t really music, but we let judges decide on that. If that were the case, then House music isn’t really considered music either, since it isn’t done in melody. Of course, I can understand if someone doesn’t like the genre, that’s fine. But there are other rappers who don’t rap about the cliched subject matter, but about stuff that’s meaningful. Sometimes, I even think that the gangsta rap from the late 1980s early to mid 1990s was better than most of the so-called gangsta rap of the present day. It’s like what I heard before, hip hop has been around for over 30 years and it still gets no respect.
Honestly, there are rappers out there who rap about stuff that has nothing to do with b***hes and hoes or shooting people and such. Try listening to guys like Common, The Roots, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Immortal Technique, or even legends like Run-DMC, Public Enemy, KRS-One, etc.
