The Moz 69 Posted November 6, 2007 To Me the best of the old school rappers was a toss between Run DMC and Ice T . Run DMC for being the first big radio Rappers ( other than maybe Sugar Hill Gang ) and Ice T for being pretty much the first gangster rapper at least as far as I remember.

Jonathan Wilson 0 Posted November 7, 2007 No Rakim? I'll go Run DMC then just for innovation and staying power. Run DMC were has-beens before they turned 30. Eric B & Rakim could kick their asses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

p.man 7 Posted November 8, 2007 Don't forget Jimmy Spicer. Who? The Adventures Of Super Rhymes. If You've never heard this song than you should listen to it. I have 2 original 12' copy's. 1 open and 1 never opened. There is actually a 2nd rap song on the record. It is the continuation of the first that is heard here. They ended the 2nd song before it was done. Here's the song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sh-IJibcR2I Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five should also be listed in this thread.
