Description
The godfather of gangster rap, featuring Chuck D and Ice-T. Includes 2021 remakes of "P.S.K." & "Gucci Time"
Jesse B. Weaver, since christened Schoolly D, is one of the most iconic figures in rap music.
Schoolly is considered within the hip-hop industry to be the creator of gangster rap with his globally acclaimed singles 'P.S.K.' and 'Gucci Time.' Schoolly D has transcended the boundaries of genre and has created 'rap' music that has been integrated in films, animated series, and sampled by some of the most prolific acts in music including the Beastie Boys, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Lil' Wayne, the Chemical Brothers, and others. Deemed a 'pioneer' by Jay-Z (Decoded, 09) and credited by Ice-T as releasing the first gangsta rap record (Props Magazine), Schoolly D's career has given inspiration to countless musicians and fans alike. Songs like 'Gucci Time,' 'Saturday Night' and 'P.S.K. What Does It Mean?' have become classics and illustrate the uncompromising narrative that has become synonymous with the hardcore gangsta rap of the eighties. His true-to-life lyrics give a snap shot of the streets of his hometown, Philadelphia, and the influences that drugs and gang life had on him as a young man. Today, Schoolly D has an almost cult-like following, as his music continues to be referential. Even younger generations have been turned onto him thanks to his work with Aqua Teen Hunger Force.
This 2LP release is Schoolly's 2021 album 'Cuz Schoolly D's Crazy' and features a remake of his classic 'P.S.K.' The album also features appearances by Chuck D and Ice-T. The album was recorded using the same studio and production of his legendary first three albums. It's reminiscent of his early work and showcases his rhythmic raps, mastery of beats, and sometimes explicit lyrics and proves the lasting power of one of rap's legendary b-boys.
