In 1983 a teenaged Andre Young ventured into a Hollywood punk rock club and West Coast hip-hop changed forever
Aw snap, you beat me to it. I caught this today. Such a crazy, kinda weird, but fascinating read and story. It's even better if you listen to an old, white guy narrate it. Actually it's typically, "Good artists copy; great artists steal" but close enough...I guess.It’s like they say, ‘Good artists steal.’”
Anyone else getting a "Oooh, look at this embarassing baby picture" kind of a vibe out of this? It's got some cool info, but it's kind of a weird article. This, for example, is just kind of weird. Like, you've written two books on the dude, gotten sued for one and had the other one canned by Mtv, and you can't figure out why this dude won't call you back? Maybe he wants you to leave him alone and stop telling his story through other people's lenses. Thanks for the share.(I tried to get in touch with Dr. Dre for this joint, but dude did not call me back. He never fucking calls me back.)
