Yo! I have not dived into 80's hip hop and know very little of it.. But i know all the stuff that was played on the radio.. But maybe you can help me and others by listing some dope 80's hip hop that might not be to known or had little radio play if at all.. Just some dope shit.. From the east coast.. Also...I talked about space hip hop here awhile ago and how I was thinking long time ago about creating a type of space hip hop.. And some people started posting 80's space hip hop.. And one of them was a 80's video joint with a team of mc's and they all where wearing white jump suits and hats.. And they had a arp on the main sample.. Does anyone remember what it was or might have a clue?? If not just post some dope 80's space hip hop..thanks....

    I don't know if it's still online anywhere but theRub dudes did a history of hiphop mix for each year from '79 onwards.

    The SPACE concept in Hip Hop didnt really take off until the 90's.

    If your lookin to get familiar w/ 80's Hip Hop there's way too much to get familiar w/.

    Ur on your own w/ that. Its too broad of a request.

    A favorite of mine... this video is so bad. File under "Post-Apocalyptic Rap" themes.

    never mind the name i just picked dj styles as a code name to get in here.. and yahoo gave me 52.. but this place already has a djstyles..lol.. The trick is to not pay attension.. Only when you wanna be alert.. So you let God work threw You... So it's hard for them to tell if it's you being alert or they think they battling "God"..lol.........
