Artists I liek [apart from ze b boys]

no specific order btw

RUN-DMC

way too much cool songs by them jus to list a few: King of Rock, Jam Master Jay, It's Like That, My Adidas, Walk This Way and Sucker MC's. These guys bridged rap and rock way b4 the beasties. its a shame tho that as time progressed their popularity shrank and their hits too. it all peaked with the death of JMJ [altho the group already split b4 his death, this jus prevented all hope of reunion]

Afrika Bambaataa and the Soul Sonic Force

As fruity lookin as these guys are, this is where hip hop started. The beats were mind blowing, even today u can still hear ppl using samples from songs like Planet Rock and Looking for the Perfect Beat. I only really enjoyed their first album, Planet Rock, which is a mix of techno, hip hop and break dancing

Fatboy Slim

cool name, cool guy. strictly instrumentals with like a single phrase being repeated throughout the whole song. jus as cool as his music is his song and album titles. favourites include.. Don't Let The Man Hold You Down, Weapon of Choice, Right Here Right Now, Praise You and Rockafeller Skank

Jimi Hendrix

super cool, #1 guitarist in history. if anyone attempts to rock strings like him there is goin to be a good chance that they'll be doin it via computer. he peaked at woodstock playin his own version of the star spangled banner, which most ppl easily recognize once played. other cool songs to his credit.. Voodoo Chile, Purple Haze, All Along The Watchtower and Hey Joe

Slick Rick & Doug E. Fresh.

the coolest rap duo evar, the story teller, Slick Rick on the vocals and the human beat box, Doug E. Fresh doin every instrument. by themselves these guys are cool, but together their jus epic. highlights include La-Di Da-Di and The Show
