    4 out of 5 stars Great Golden Age mixtape, if you can find it!.......2007-07-10

    Released during the "golden age" of hip hop, "YO MTV RAPS: THE ALBUM" was a collection of period songs from popular hip-hop artists. The album pulls from both the East Coast and the west coast acts who were just becoming mainstream: among the artists are Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince, Ice T, Too Short, Stetsasonic, Rob Base, Kid N Play, and more.

    Of particular interest is that several songs here are the extended 12-inch versions-- Stetsasonic's "talkin all that jazz", Boogie Down Productions' "My philosophy", Kool Moe Dee's "Wild Wild West", Too Short's "Life is Too Short", Steady B's "I'm Serious" remix and more..

    5 out of 5 stars One Of The Greatest for Old School Heads .......2007-05-24

    The song by sequence is a CLASSIC. And yes that is Angie Stone rapping in 1979. The only thing that I could have done without is "It's Like That" by Run DMC. That is one of the rare songs by them that I don't like. Roxanne Roxanne-whew! priceless! I still feel very proud that I know all the words to Educated Rapper's "ary" flow! You know what I'm talking about! This CD has an excellent flow. I bought this about 13 years ago and it is still one of my main work out CD's. My little 4 year old cousin accidentally broke it and I went into cardiac arrest thinking that I would not be able to find this again. But here it is on AMAZON. The fact that I have had this CD for 13 years and the lost of it was tragic to me let's you know just how deeply this music runs in the heart, soul, and blood stream. Anyone who likes those original 80s raps will adore this. I love 90s hip as well. But there is something still so pure and innocent with these songs! They will melt you. I was in elementary school during most of these songs, but as an adult a cling to them to remind me of an easier time. GET IT!

    5 out of 5 stars "More old skool Hip-Hop classics".......2005-08-28

    I believe this was the 2nd compilation of old skool rap ever to hit the shelves back in '90. A sign of where a lot of these compilations would be heading to and setting a trend for "old skool" Hip-Hop compilations in the future. This CD is strictly classic material. No wack songs are found here. A definite classic!

    5 out of 5 stars this is what Rhino's "hip hop from the top" series should have been .......2005-08-13

    They did things right on this collection, with all the 12" versions--except, ironically, for rapper's delight, which is the edit on this disc, and the long version on the other series! Track times:

    1. rapper's delight (7:08)
    2. fat boys (6:50)
    3. white lines (7:28)
    4. roxanne roxanne (5:10)
    5. jam on it (7:55)
    6. it's like that (7:23)
    7. the message (7:11)
    8. funk you up (6:30)
    9. the breaks (7:41)
    10. 8th wonder (5:44)

    5 out of 5 stars All are excellent cuts.......2002-07-20

    I think all cuts on this CD are excellent! Very Highly Recommended.

    5 out of 5 stars Live Long and Prosper...........2000-07-22

    ....this is a great collection of original rap classix. UTFO, Kurtis Blow, Grandmaster Flash, Sugarhill. Get it for the hard, hard to find rarities "Jam on It" by Newcleus (wikki, wikki, wikki) and "Funk You Up" by girl rappers Sequence--which may or may not have current hit maker Angie Stone...? Is that the same one? Anyway, get it and remember 'ho-tel, mo-tel--hall-i-day inn...'

      Cocaine Raps Vol. 2 Is Another Good Album. Andre Nickatina Is A Unique Rapper. He Ain't No 50 Cent, Any Of The "Young" Whatever They Call Themselves These Days, Or Mainstream Rappers. Those Only Rap About Cars, Clubs, And Hos. With Nicky You Get Another View Of Rap...Nickatina Was Also Voted As The Best Underground Rapper Of The Year In 2005. (Though He Will Be Played All Over The Place After His Death, Just As They Did For Mac Dre...) A Few Of My Fav. Songs On Cocaine Raps 2 Is King Nicky's Crown, Baking Soda In Minnesota, And Bobby Shaw Is My Tiga.

      I don't have the actual CD but I've downloaded most of the songs from the album with Itunes and These are great songs. If you put these in an upgraded car sterio system withs amps and stuff these sound amazing. Great for those West Coast Wiggerz on the go!

      5 out of 5 stars Another tremendous album by this unique artist.......2005-06-15

      Andre Nickatina (a.k.a. Dre Dog a.k.a King Nicky) is trully one of the most original, unique and talented rappers ever. For over the decade now, he's been doing his own thing, creating music so much different (and usually better) than most rappers. In the last few years, it seems like almost everyone is afraid to stand out and be original and try new things. Well, Andre Nickatina is an expection: his style is like nothing you've ever ever heard. Musically - his beats are trully something else, they can't even be described. Nicky is not afraid to try new beats and be totally innovative. But don't worry - this doesn't make the music sound weird, but the opposite - his music is some of the best you'll get to hear, so new, so fresh. As far as his rapping is concirned, Dre is untouchable: His voice is so raw: he can be laid back or he can get hard as hell. Lyrically, Nicky is on another level, so unique and cerative, they're like nothing else you'll get to hear. Andre Nickatina's got it all and he keeps doing his own thing, releasing an album every year. Andre Nickatina is quite big in Frisco and the whole Bay Area, but he should be much bigger. It's just that he's too special and unique for most people. If you want to hear something different, and much better than most albums released these days, get this album, you'll be surprised!

      5 out of 5 stars A king Nicky masterpiece.......2004-03-08

      Andre Nickatina has a signature style that is different from any rapper out there. This album is one of the best not just from Nickatina but any rapper for that matter. You can't go wrong with this album. The beats are un heard of, and the rhymes are RAW. Nickatina is the coolest, and I hope he never stops rapping.

      5 out of 5 stars buy it!.......2004-01-01

      yo buy this tape if you're gonna 52-11 it, you know what i'm sayin? this is the straight up 420 from my main man nickatina right tharr in the 20 50 26 doin it 28177 style and never pullin down a 2817 that's right. the real deal 6.21119e+10 homeboy
