This is the groundbreaking 1980 Rap composition “The New Rap Language” by Spoonie Gee & The Treacherous Three. At the time, Spoonie Gee, Kool Moe Dee, Special K & L.A. Sunshine were all between the ages 17 and 18. Nothing was ever the same again: youtu.be/ppdQMWKQ2ok?...

Looks like a basic moneygrab that didn’t do basic research/fact checking without appointing a primary project leader. Any point person would’ve made the distinction between songs produced for albums, remixes, singles & official releases as either DJ Premier or Gang Starr or PRhyme, etc.
Messy.

@dartadams.bsky.social Hi Dart, I know you are working on various pieces but I’m curious to know what you think about this book. What was done in the book is basically the opposite of what you do as a music journalist. I collected the issues it has here. medium.com/@genaktion/a...
