Really like the way you presented the early days of hip hop in your video and infusing your personal experience. Have to say this was one of the most fun videos to watch out of all the VC channels on here. Nice surprise at the end with MC Hammer and the A's! Thanks for sharing.

Oh wow. I really do appreciate that! Your positive feedback is encouraging. Glad you enjoyed the bit about the baseball! Thanks for watching.

Dude. That was good fun. Enjoyed your take. I was also mostly Golden Era only, but I was latter period, like 86-90. My parents still have a 40 strong cassette case that I call my "Hip-hop Graveyard". Lots of classics in that era, because you could sample the heck out of literally everything. And then the Beastie Boys sampled The Beatles. Which you can't do.😄 I just bought Digital Underground's Sex Packets on vinyl. Total Oaktown classic. "Freaks Of The Industry" is such a banger. 💯 Hope your summer is going smoothly! 😁

Oh wow. That cassette case is worth it's weight in gold! Happy you enjoyed the video. Sadly none of the albums I featured in the video is wearing a white suit! Will check out Digital Underground too. There's just so much music out there it's really hard to keep up.Thanks for stopping by.

Don't know much about hip hop. Its history is fascinating with the way you did this video. Thanks.

I'm so glad this video popped up on my homepage. Awesome retrospective! You pretty much covered all the classic hip hop albums. What a great story about MC Hammer and the Oakland baseball team. Just subscribed.

@retromusings 10 ай бұрын

It's hard to decide which to leave out with so many hip hop artists and bands around so it was quite difficult to do the video. Glad you enjoyed hearing about little ol' MC Hammer's goings-on at the Oakland A's clubhouse. Thanks for watching and for your sub. Look forward to seeing you here again.

Some great albums here. Thanks for sharing! One of my favorite albums (there are so many) is Book of Human Language by Aceyalone.

@retromusings 10 ай бұрын

Glad you approve. And yes, just too many hip hop albums and artists out there. Will check out Aceyalone as I really enjoy learning about artists I don't know about. It's hard to keep with so much music out there. Many thanks for stopping by and watching.

I love the OLD 80's Hip Hop, i have some great Sugarhill records. Rappers Delight, White lines. I play Frankie smith-Double Dutch Bus (givemeaho, i say shhhhhhhhhhh-sugarrrrr) frequently. The Raiders will always be Oakland.

The Silver and Black's heart will always be in Oakland coming from a die-hard Raider fan. Thanks for stopping by and watching.

I don't delve too much into this genre , but one of my favourite groups in a similar style is Morcheeba . They have some great songs like : What's Your Name ( with Big Daddy Kane ) , Let It Go , Let Me See , and Otherwise , to name a few . Thank you for this video , as you've given me some places to go to in this genre . As for the Wu Tang Clan Chambers album , I have a jazz like version by El Michels Affair , called Enter the 37th Chamber . It's pretty cool . Thanks again for all of your recommendations !!!!

Morcheeba is fantastic. I listen to them too. Thanks for stopping by.

I wish we had more context for who you are, your personal audio/career journey, etc. You're obviously knowledgeable and have had a deep history with music, it would be great if you shared more.

@retromusings 10 ай бұрын

For privacy reasons, I don't wish to reveal too much about myself. All the same, many thanks for stopping by to watch the video. Hope to see you again.

@livingnoise6399 10 ай бұрын

Cool vid. I'd never heard of the Boo-Ya Tribe. Most of the solo Wu-Tang stuff is worth looking into. Liquid Swords by the GZA is up there on my favorite hip hop albums.

@retromusings 10 ай бұрын

Yes. I couldn't agree more. the solo stuff is pretty good. Thanks for stopping by.

@Ed-Topo-108 10 ай бұрын

Great selections, especially all the Sugarhill! Need more HipHop in the VC!

@tudormiller887 10 ай бұрын

Agreed. But the majority of the VC mainly care about purchasing Rock, Pop, Country, Folk, Blues & Jazz albums.

In the 80s I had a lot of the big name hip hop artist but they were not a big part of my life. I still dabble with this genre with most focus on the 80s and early 90s. Then it just got too much for me lol

@retromusings 10 ай бұрын

Thanks for sharing your experience. Some of the music is very very hardcore and "angry" and I tend to stay away from that sub-genre of hip hop. Many thanks for stopping by and watching.

really cool to see your collection of classic Hip Hop LPs and hear the story of how Hip Hop related to your Life.enjoyed the dope video.

Glad you enjoyed the video. I grew up with funk/soul/hip hop in surround sound as a child...happy days for sure. Thanks for stopping by and watching.

There's something charmingly incongruous about the thought of an erudite, earnest, middle aged Asian woman in a room next to a bookcase and a gramophone talking knowledgeably about 2 Live Crew and Boo Yaa Tribe! I'm not hating, I enjoyed the video and I think the way music breaks cultural boundaries is beautiful. I'm super curious, who is this lady? Does she work in the music industry?

@retromusings 10 ай бұрын

I have no involvement whatsoever with the music industry. Many thanks for stopping by to watch the video.

I love hip hop and had no idea it went as far back as 1973! Absolutely fantastic video and such an excellent summary of its "Golden Era". Love the music you used in it too. Very cool! Count me in. Subbed!

@retromusings 10 ай бұрын

Glad you enjoyed it. I too had no idea it dated all the way back to 1973. Many thanks for stopping by to watch and for the sub!

Yes. I hadn't realised I said "Kill" until after doing the video. Haha. Big oopsy! Thanks for stopping by to watch.

@tudormiller887 10 ай бұрын

Great video. I'd say The Beastie Boys Paul's Boutique album from 1989 is the best Hip-Hop album of all time. IMO. ❤ The A's are heading for the WS with The Cubs this season.

@retromusings 10 ай бұрын

Really great to know what other people's picks are. Seems like yesterday they came out with their debut album "Licence to Ill". And that's what I like to hear about the Oakland Athletics! Go A's! Thanks for stopping by and watching.

Appreciate your exuberant presentations. "The Message" was released July 1 , 1982. Seems every Sugar Hill artist, turned it down. The zeitgeist, rap was up til then party, and braggadocio rhymes; the soci-political tone seemed to scare rappers off. LL beefed with Treacherous Three's Kool Moe Dee, and Ice T. Melle Mel said "The Beastie Boys suck", maybe on GM Flash's "The Source" album. It's cool how you corrected yourself, and I think you are cute. Are you also into punk?

@retromusings 7 ай бұрын

You know so much about Hip Hop. Thanks for sharing that info about "The Message" and the rivalry. I read somewhere that GM was not even supposed to get credit for that song when it was released and full credit should have gone to Melle Mel. Thanks for watching. Much appreciated.
