One at a time, don’t get stupid....

The piano loop on ED OG’s ‘Life of a Kid in the Ghetto’ is one of the greatest things ever

Puffy yelling over the intro to On The Real on the Bad Boy Vol 3 mixtape

The drums on Run DMC's - Together Forever

When rappers go back and forth a la Smif N Wessun on 'Lets Git It On', or the 3rd verse of Nas/G Rap 'Fast Life' etc

"I'm sick & tired of mutha fuckaz tryin to sound like DAS EFX!" (c) Fat Joe. The overall hardcore vibe of the early 90's. Hearing the angst of the ghetto come through my speaker from MCs voices.

Amazing scratch hooks, from EPMD to Gangstarr, Special Ed, L.L. Cool J etc. Too many people trying to imitate Preemo today makes me admire the 80's & 90's scratch hooks even more.

Doo Wop switching from The ? Remains into Mad Izm on his Fall Flavour '94 tape ("1-2-3 BOUNCE!!")

I love the back and forth on Binary Star - Masters of the Universe

The outlandish shit you'd see on album covers from the late 80's/early 90's. I love how much fun artists had on their covers.

The Party Posse's "Steppin In Doo-Doo" cover from '89 is hilarious.

The obvious, AZ's debut on Life's A Bitch.
Rae & Ghost on MGM.
