Uffingreg and Miketheknife got me listening to a lot of my old hip hop albums yesterday and today. Made me think back to the days of Yo! MTV Raps, and how it felt to discover this kind of music. This song in particular is one of my favorites, and one I know through and through. While many may not have ever heard of this artist, many rappers give Schoolly D credit with the creation of gangsta rap. Ice T was quoted as saying:

"The first record that came out along those lines was Schoolly D's "P.S.K." Then the syncopation of that rap was used by me when I made "Six In The Morning". The vocal delivery was the same: '...P.S.K. is makin' that green', '...six in the morning, police at my door'. When I heard that record I was like "Oh shit!" and call it a bite or what you will but I dug that record. My record didn't sound like "P.S.K.", but I liked the way he was flowing with it. "P.S.K." was talking about Park Side Killers but it was very vague. That was the only difference, when Schoolly did it, it was '...one by one, I'm knockin' em out'. All he did was represent a gang on his record. I took that and wrote a record about guns, beating people down, and all that with "Six In The Morning"

Enjoy the music, and thank you to Greg and Mike.
