Nas - The Message

When I was in France, visiting my family, I had heard that song, it was the first time in my life hearing a rap song. It was actually released as a single in France back then. I was 8 years old when I heard that song, I remember it perfectly clear, seeing that black and white video.. In 1998. Ahh, the good days. I guess that's why Nas is my favorite rapper of all time...

Im guessing for me it would be either the Fresh Prince of Bel Air theme tune, or else something from Don't be a Menace to South Central-I woulda heared these in the early 90's

50 Cent- In Da Club

I think it was TRSS. But didn't really like or listen to rap at that time.

Criminal by Eminem. I didn't really start listening to hip-hop until about two years ago, really.. and now it's a huge part of my life after catching up with all of the huge albums and events that surround it.
