Tupac, Pete Rock

It's going back a bit but my hip hop heroes were/are Schoolly D, Kurtis Blow, Big Daddy Kane, Chuck D, Q-Tip, Rakim - and probably a few more.

As a youth I always had a soft spot for Ice-T. Intelligent style and a quite sophisticated agenda under that gangster rap persona. But I rarely touch my hiphop records nowadays ... it was the perfect music for my childhood days but not anymore.

However if I happen to put on a hiphop album nowadays it tends to be by rappers such as Boots Riley (forward with socialism!), Poor Righteous Teachers and the early Wu-Tang. I also enjoy the majestic vocal style of Jeru the Damajah. Sometimes also the chaotic sounds of Public Enemy & Hijack find favour in my quarters.

The first album I ever bought was Ice-T's Power (this was in 1991). What a great album it was (and still is)!
