Not the one you bought, but what was the first rap album/song that you ever heard? Was it a good or bad impression?

I just remember my Dad coming home from work one day and wanted to show my Grandpa this new CD he bought on his sound system in the living room. I don't think he liked it, but I did.

It was Dr. Dre's The Chronic. I was only 6 or 7 and was forced to leave the room for obvious reasons, but the few songs I heard, I remember being amazed by the sound.

Being a UGK fan, I wish my first rap experience was Super Tight or something else by them, but The Chronic was definitely a good introduction to the genre.

Biggie - Mo Money Mo Problems i had never even remotely tried to listen to rap before this song, then I heard it and was mesmerized. I went and bought the single (on CASETTE) a couple days later and I remember me and my friend listening to it on repeat for hours :)

I don't remember a first album(Though I suspect it was either Doggystyle by Snoop or Country Grammar by Nelly, not sure which, or if it's even those two at all, but I remember hearing those pretty young, like when i was 10 11 or 12 when I first seriously started liking the genre.

 

I remember when I was a kid, when MTV still played music, I would watch Yo!Mtv Raps and all the countdowns and stuff.... This was when I was pretty young, probly not even 6 years old yet but I remember I loved the sound of rap and just music in general.

It as well made me hate him though I had respect for anyone who puts John Witherspoon in a video

word up...i hated Jay for a minute.

my first rap song was coolio's gangsta's paradise 1, 2, 3, 4 or fantastic voyage....can't recall which one, but i know i loved all 3, and those were the first joints i remember bumping..i remember walking down the halls at school, or playing at recess and reciting the choruses to those songs....though outside of coolio i hated rap 'till about '99 or so.

This is a story all about how
My life got flipped-turned upside down
And i liked to take a minute
And sit right there
And tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel Air
