80's Competition 2014 Extended Mix Plus The 90's

I have uploaded this mix earlier than planned in memory of Michael Brown shot 6 times, twice in the head. 

Ice Cube needs no introduction - whether you bumped his music in the golden era, heard your parents or older siblings doing so, or have seen his face on the big screen in the present, most of you are no doubt familiar. Despite his recently Hollywood endeavours, make no mistake - he'll forever remain an OG (he wrote "Boyz 'N Tha Hood", for God's sake). A founding member of pioneering rap collective N.W.A. (as well as Westside Connection with WC and Mack 10), this emcee, producer, actor and director helped define gangsterism in a hip-hop context. Throughout his prolific career, the South Central L.A. native has collaborated with the likes of Snoop Dogg,Public Enemy, E-40, Too Short, Scarface, Tyga, Ty Dolla $ign, Warren G, Chino CXL, Lil Jon, The Game, Tech N9ne, Paul Wall, Spider Loc, Jadakiss and countless others, not to mention his N.W.A. brethren Dr. Dre, MC Ren, MC Yella, and Eazy E (may he rest in peace)

The Leaders Of The New School were an American hip hop crew composed of Uniondale, New York natives Charlie Brown, Dinco D, Busta Rhymes and Cut Monitor Milo, Busta Rhymes’ cousin. The four got their start touring with Hip Hop group Public Enemy, and in fact it was member Chuck D who gave Busta Rhymes his name. The group made their first appearance on an Elektra Records compilation titled Rubaiyat: Elektra’s 40th Anniversary, with a song called “Mt. Airy Groove”. LONS soon joined up with popular Hip Hop crew, the Native Tongues Posse, along with the Jungle Brothers, De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest and Black Sheep. 

In 1991 they made a guest appearance on A Tribe Called Quest’s classic hit single “Scenario”. Their debut album also came in 1991, entitled A future without a past, which included the hits “Case Of The P.T.A.”, “Sobb Story” and “The International Zone Coaster”. The group was praised for their light-hearted content, and old-school call-and-response deliveries. Their second and last album was T.I.M.E., released in 1993, which stood for “The Inner Mind’s Eye”. The album was less acclaimed than their debut, but spawned rap hits “What’s Next” and “Classic Material”.

As time passed, fans and critics began to focus less on LONS as a group, and more on rapper Busta Rhymes as an individual. During an infamous appearance on the TV show Yo! MTV Raps, the group was seen arguing, with member Charlie Brown becoming upset over Busta’s show-stealing. The group soon split up, with Charlie Brown, Dinco D, and Milo garnering very limited success individually, while Busta Rhymes’ popularity continued to increase.
