"All Time Favorites" Nunmber one rap group ever. N.W.A!

N.W.A for those of you who do not recognize the acronym you better ask somebody!  For the most part of the 1980's they were the most recognized bad boy club of rappers that ever lived.  Before 2pac, biggie and marshal mathers, better know as "Eminem".  There most popular song and the national anthem of the getto's would have to be "F_ck the police".  During the years of the rodney king beating days, they used there mass appeal to bring light to the injustice that most youth in the projects were facing, brought on by corrupt police force of the L.A Police Dept.  Their fame was set in stone with the help of Al Sharpton, when he approached the FCC to ban the violent message and degradation of women in rap music.  All though they were loved by many, they decided to separate as most groups do to pursue a larger payday. Although they make music, the degradation of women should not be condoned, on the other hand a more positive approach would have net them a larger audience.  (KAGE).

Ludacris


"Watch out for my medallion the diamonds are wreckless, feels like a midget is hanging from my necklace." That is one of the lines that stands out from my all time favorite rapper Ludacris song titled "stand up". Christopher "Ludacris" Bridges was born in Champaign, Illinois, but later moved to Atlanta Georgia where he studied music management at Georgia State University. This talented artist has been a big part of music industry when he came out with his first album "Back for the First Time" back in 2000. This included two of his biggest hits "Whats Your Fantasy" and "Southern Hospitality". Since then he has been able to release six more albums. They are Chicken-N-Beer(2003), The Red Light District(2004), Release Therapy(2006), Theatre of the Mind(2008), and Battle of the Sexes(2010). He is also the co founder of Disturbing Da Peace record label. Like most music artist, Ludacris decided to venture into the world of acting. You can catch him im movies such as 2 Fast 2 Furious(2001), Max Payne(2008), and Hustle & Flow(2005).

Below is a link to one of his songs "Act a Fool" from the 2 Fast 2 Furious soundtrack

Thuggish Ruggish Bone



Whats up everybody? In this blog I wanted to talk about my all time favorite rap group, Bone Thugs N Harmony. Bone Thugs is a rap group that was started by five artist from Cleveland Ohio in 1991. The members are Krayzie Bone, Bizzy Bone, Flesh n Bone, Wish Bone, and Layzie Bone so you can see were they picked the name of the group from. The group became real popular once they signed a record deal with Eric "Eazy E" Wright back in 1994 under Ruthless Records. In 1995 they received a Grammy Award for their song "Crossroads" which talked about losing the important people in their life. A few of my favorite songs from them would have to be "first of the month", "no surrender", "crossroads", and "money money".
