Okay this White Public Enemy group did a song with Paris? Paris worked with the real PE as well. Interesting.

Well it's not like the producers don't do work with the samples. That's what I was hoping to show with my sample/rap combos which I started posting a few months ago when Asher claimed that rappers were just using other people's music... yes, they're using other people's music, but producers and DJ's are rearranging it into a new product. It's still creative to take that loop and chop it and slice it, change the pitch, add a drum-line, and so forth to make a new musical composition. Think about it... they're taking any genre of music (classical, jazz, rock, doo wop, soul, blues, disco, etc.) and turning it into another.

The very first mainstream rap song was just three guys rapping over a disco band performing a disco song. That's how modern rap emerged. It was MC's and DJ's rapping over disco breaks.

You know Rapper's Delight, right? The first mainstream modern rap song from 1979... obviously, from the following you can tell rapping was fully-formed it was just done over disco instrumentation. I've posted songs in here in which performers were rapping as early as the 1950's. Rapping is very old but it's modern popularity dates from the late 70's.



A year later, Kurtis Blow came out with The Breaks:

I was going post that

[Docfeelgood]

That was terrible.

And Yeastie Girls? Such a rip off of Beastie Boys but on top of that... Yeastie? Women with yeast infections?

LOL

[Docfeelgood]

I'm a little surprised. I didn't even think there were 'conscious' white rappers in the early 90's.

But that is so derivative of Public Enemy. Holy **** they're jacking Public Enemy's whole style. And that guy is def trying to do a Chuck D impression.

Coud it be the other way around?

[Al B. Sure!]

Coud it be the other way around?

No. Public Enemy was formed in 1986. Your Consolidated was formed in 1988.

Paris was a rapper associated with Public Enemy. He was big in the early 90's then kind of disappeared. Typical early 90's Nation of Islam rapper but a little more political and left-wing than usual which was odd because he had his Bachelor's in Economics from UC Davis, according to wikipedia.

He had a lot of controversy cause he made a song back then called Bush Killer.

This was the song that put Paris on the map... 1990's The Devil Made Me Do It:



It's crazy to think that was 21 years ago!

I assume you know Public Enemy.

[Docfeelgood]

Beethoven is a love of mine.
This moves my soul when i hear it

Then tell me what you feel.

[Docfeelgood]

[Docfeelgood]

Beethoven's 5th Symphony only a deaf person has not heard a snip of this masterpiece.

[Docfeelgood]
