Old School Friday, Vol. 1

Just some Old School Friday fun in my Twitter stream; a snapshot of some of the old school hip hop & club records I'm entertaining myself with (and the stories behind them).


You can check out the Old School Friday Vol. 1 playlist here. Decided to throw these songs together after I had so much fun listening to them last night on YouTube.



You'll find some early rap from New York, Philadelphia, and L.A. in the mix, along with club hits of the period and some party records that fueled the birth of hip hop.

I'll add more to the mix next time I throw out some old school jams on Twitter. For now, enjoy these jams from the Funky Four +1, James Brown, ESG, Run DMC, L.A. Dream Team and more.
