[2PacThug4Life]

I remember i was around 7, 8, 9 (somewhere in there) and my dad was datin this girl and when we would go somewhere she would turn on 102.5 (Bay Area Station) and i remember hearing it and i thought it was tight. from then on i was into it. my alarm clock was set to that station and it seemed like everyday it went off it would play tha song Don't Leave Me Girl by Blackstreet (i love that song). i also remember when i was like 6 at my mom's apartment i was flippin around tha channels and i saw tha california love video and i liked it. good times, good times .

Actually listened to Will Smith when I was like 8 and 9, I'm only 16 now, but, I at the time all my friends and shit watched WCW wrestling, and thier was this dude on there named K-Dawg, and he was like the coolest wrestler, and he was a "rapper" lol, they always played his song and the video and shit.

But I didn't get heavily into rap untill like 6th grade when my dude introduced me to Eminem, DMX, and Xzibit, those were like the first major rappers I listened to.

 

[Tito]

Kurtis Blow.

 

[Advocate]

Will Smith in grade 5,6,7

and then it seemed to switch to Eminem

but the first song was probably Rapper's Delight

 

[OxyContin]

I've "listened" to rap since the beginning of 90's. The first rap video I ever saw was Ice Cube's remix of "the message", where he is in prison. And ever since then my interests grew and grew....

[Missy "C"]

my ex-boyfriend is an eminem fan, so i started listening to rap cuz of him. After that I met a friend who introduced me to real rap, and artists like 2pac, biggie, dmx...

 

[Pacaveli-T]

I did when I watched the movie "dangerous minds" my bf just reintroduced me to a forgotten interest again.

 

[Cuban]

I was listening to Limp Bizkit and all that at around 11. Then I heard that song "N 25 Gether Now" with Method and I thought it was hot. So I started looking out for other rappers and I just slowly got into it.

 

[Lil Jm]

When I was 8 or 7, I used to listen to Will Smith, and then a buy Puff Daddy's No Way Out, and then Jay-Z's Hard Knock Life, and then DMX first Album, and then...

 

[ARon]

I kinda think it is funny tht some poeple actually had to be introduced to rap, but maybe thats just me. Been around since day one so i really couldn't tell you.

 

[Shadows]

when i was young, all we could do was listen to music.
my mom would bump zapp and roger and oldies and stuff.
while my bros bumped cypress hill and tupac all day.

 

[Chronic]

2Pac.
Thank God I wanted to find out about other rappers as well, otherwise I'd be one of the Life retards.

 

[Mr. Untouchable]

My brother got me in to rap when I was 7 or 8, he had the Snoop Doggy Dogg album 'Doggystyle' on cassette, I thought the shit was amazing. Then he gave me a Bone Thugs & Harmony track on cassette, and from then on I've been listening to the music.

 

[pietro006]

when i was 10-11 years old, I was listening to Eminem's Shady LP and thats when I started listenin' to rap
