I believe you. I'm seeing a lot of this lately. A lot of these mods are wet behind the ears and a little trigger happy.

I say a mod ought to be at least a year old AND whatever other criteria they have. Being able to spell and use proper grammar would be nice too.

You want Gangsta Rap huh? Check out the new
Star Wars Gangsta Rap, if you're 18 or older. This is what Gangsta Rap is about, right?

While i don't care for ''Gangsta Rap'' or even listen to it i really do dig this one cut by Above the Law.

N.W.A. was definitely underground in their early days, I have a few 12"s and the CIA EP from 86-87 that no one's ever heard. I'm not sure if the band as a whole could be considered underground, for there wasn't such a clear mainstream-underground dividing line at the time. They're just dope. Straight Outta Compton is definitely #1 gangsta rap album, almost the standard for the genre I'd say.

Tie between Kool G. Rap's 456 and Raekwon's Only Built 4 Cuban Linx. Nas, Jay-Z, Biggie, Big Pun, etc. all put out amazing (or even better) albums during the same time, but most of them had some type of pop/crossover element. These two were straight thugged out ishhhh with no filler. The East Coast was never this hard again....
