So one of my loyal readers indicated that the Sugerhill Gang is actually from Jersey (I had read they were from NYC but I guess this was wrong). Anyway, Public Enemy is from Long Island, which is is a little closer -- and this is one of their best songs. Before he starred on dumb reality shows as a wannabe Viking, Flavor Flav was hip-hop trailblazer.
Howard Stern said this was his favorite song of 1988. Can you believe it's over 20 years old?
Fear not, every rapper that matters is from NY!
ReplyDeleteIt's incredible how time flies by. I do remember this song.
