You're right about the early 90s being the best period for rap. Don't sleep on the late 80s, that was a good period too for rap.

I like these albums from the late 80s:

Paid In Full-Eric B. & Rakim

Strictly Business-EPMD

Long Live the Kane-Big Daddy Kane

The Adventures of Slick Rick-Slick Rick

I do like your list isiah.

What a great artistic statement! White men are devils! Interracial marriages are evil! Korean grocers can't speak decent English! Jews are money-grubbing, duplictious pop impresarios!

Gimme a break.

um, not all rap is like that Steve.
just like heavy metal is not all about devil worshipping
just like rock is not all about suicide...etc etc etc.

there is good and bad in all kinds of music

Good: Patsy Cline
Bad: Shania Twain (my opinion, no hater stuff please, to me she is more pop than country)

Good: Led Zepplin
Bad: Any group who tries to copy them

Good: Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube
Bad: O.D.B. (he's dead, no more so-called rap from him)

Good: Madonna
Bad: Britney

just some examples...

Hip-Hop music in the early 90's brings back some memories during the last 15 years. PM Dawn "Set Adrift on Memory Bliss" was a great song, "New Jack Hustler" by Ice-T was an okay song, Snoop Dogg's "Gin & Juice" was great and "Regulate" by Warren G was not bad.

Steve M stop trippin about Ice Cube. So what Ice Cube hated white people, jews, asians back in the day. Death Certificate album is a classic. Horny Lil Devil song on that album cracks me up. He says on the song, lookin at my girlfriend's black skin, she wanna kill the devil cause she don't like white men so don't play that role you fu*kin jerk. You'll get your punk devil ass hurt muthaf*cka hahahahahahahahahaha. Then he said white bi*ches have no butt & no chest hahahahahahahahahaha. At the end of Horny Lil Devil, he plays a scene from Spike Lee's Do The Right Thing movie where Radio Raheem went into a corner store owned by asians to buy some batteries for his radio boombox. Raheem said D Energizer. The asian dude said D Energizer? Raheem said D. Asian dude said D? Raheem said D muthaf*cka D hahahahahaha. Raheem said learn to speak english first alright LOL. Asian dude's wife said how many you take. Raheem said 20 muthaf*cka 20 LOL. Asian dude said muthaf*ck you LOL. You can tell by listening to Death Certificate that Ice Cube really hated white people. He has another song on the album called I Wanna Kill Sam. That song talks about uncle Sam recruiting black men to go to the military to fight in the war. At the end of the song, Ice Cube says i wanna kill Sam cause he ain't my muthaf*ckin uncle LOL. I wish Ice Cube still rapped like that today.

Stop trippin' about attacks on white men who date black women, white people in general, Koreans, Jews, and others? Excuse me? If Eminem attacked black people like that, and made the same comments about other groups, the NAACP would run his tail up a flagpole, and rightly so. I don't think you want to be extolling the virtues of Death Certificate in earshot of a Jewish fellow with his black wife and adopted Korean child (it could happen!) standing nearby.

Ohyeah, if Ice Cube doesn't like the idea of the military recruiting black men, he should tell fellow black men to just say no. Let crackers from the South do the fighting, they love that sh--!
