Easy E - Nobody Move

Run DMC - Tricky

Quite possibly, these guys might be my all time favorite, 2 Live Crew. I'm not gonna lie, I follow Uncle Luke on twitter and would have voted him for Mayor had I been a Miami resident.

I walked into a Subway the other day and they were playing Head Down, Ass Up, That's the Way We Like to F@ck.
Quite an extreme piece of music to accompany a sandwich.
"Fat Boys & The Beach Boys - Wipeout (HQ)" on YouTube
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-kAnNgqN9o&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Hip hop's favourite type 2 diabetics. With their reworking of the beach boys classic. Look out for more shameful behaviour from Mike Love in the video
Fat Boys- Human Beat Box
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJewbFZHI34
On that note, I highly recommend watching "Disorderlies". Best terrible movie.

Jeru The Damaja - Jungle Music

Jemini The Gifted One - Brooklyn Kids

Malcolm Mclaren - Buffalo Gals
The first hip hop video to feature the now infamous Buffalo mountain hat as sported by Pharell.
Strange to think that the NYC Breakers and the Rock Steady Crew were wearing Westwood Buffalo gear in Beat Street in 1984.....
I suppose a good question would be what are your 5 favourite/most listened to hip hop albums of all time.
Mine are..
5. Predator - Ice Cube
4. Quality Control - Jurassic 5
3. Midnight Marauders - A Tribe Called Quest
2. Hello Nasty - Beastie Boys
1. Cypress Hill - Cypress Hill
Oh and notable late entry..
Dice Game - Guilty Simpson
Only Built 4 Cuban Lynx - Raekwon
Ironman - Ghostface
Showbiz and AG - Runaway Slave
Hell On Earth - Mobb Deep
Supreme Clientele - Ghostface
bonus ball would be Uncontrolled Substance - Inspectah Deck
Midnight Marauders was an epic album.
5. Dr Dre - The Chronic
4. Snoop Dog - Doggystyle
3. Beastie Boys - License to Ill
2.Run DMC - Raising Hell
1. NWA - Straight Outta Compton
Gang Starr - Step In The Arena would squeeze in there somehow too
also Genius/GZA - Liquid Swords and Beneath The Surface
anything played before or after these two albums just sounds lacklustre
Main Source - Breakin' Atoms

Tim Dog - Fuck Compton
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mppf1xhSh6E
and all the Ultramagnetic output really...
The Prodigy would have been nowhere without those guys

We Got Talent - 'Bar Brasil' has just opened in the Avenida here - full on with: head-banging - hip-hop, reggae, 'n' rock 'n' roll; the scent of spliffs in the Trade Wind breezes; girls in fio-dental thongs, shakin' it to live Af drum-beats; spilt beer, rum, whisky, and cachaca (mixed ad hoc in casks on trolleys) on the pavements and O, Yes, Carnaval is starting to take the Sleepy Hollow by Storm but, except for the odd shooting, there won't be any trouble...
