lol...okay which ones are right?

I think I got 2/12.

At best 5 / 12

I shoulda got that Naughty one, that's my favourite song on there

I think on the Jay-Z one he is talking about Jaz-O but when Jay appeared in Hawaiian Sophie Jaz-O obviously never "blew up" and Jigga was nowhere near famous in that video sooooo.....Hey Trotter fashion these questions right mayne...lol

oh and let me know which ones are right or at least give me a number.....

If I tell you whats right itll make the quiz easier for others. I will tell you one thing POSSE ON BROADWAY was NOT Sir-Mix-Alot's first hit. Im surprised you got that wrong

I nearly put Jaz-O but didn't for the same reasons. I think Memphis Bleek and Beanie Sigel at least went gold and went on to make more albums at least. I don't think Sauce Money had another album after middle finger u failed. And I don't know what the fuck Amil did so I don't think it was much

lol....okay, hey I'm a New Yorker man, we weren't listening to any Seattle based emcees back then, so I just went with the first video I ever saw from Mix Alot which was "My Posse's On Broadway"....let's see if tranny knows which one it is then, he's from way out there in west bubble fuck...lol

After this quiz is done with, I'm going to throw up one myself, this is a great idea Trotter, you've brought some life back to this board man....it needed it!

I'd say you're right D, guess it could be the definition of "hit", maybe something like Beepers was the first to chart.

1. Ballies
2.LA Dream Team--Nursery Rhymes
Spice 1-187 proof
Doug E Doug-Doug E Fresh
Jeru The Damaja --The Prophet
Dizzy Rascal--Dreams
(Okay The Prophet, and Dreams may not technically be stop-motion so I may got my own question wrong)

3.Sir Mix-a Lots first hit was Square Dance Rap. If you had a pulse in 1985 you heard this song. It just came out 3 years before his first album so people thought he was a one hit wonder. Still this song sounds awesome even today



4.Gladiator Posse, later changed to GP WU for commercial appeal

5. Its On

6. Sauce Money, Memphis Bleek (C'mon, Bleek only sold albums off sound scan scams) I'll accept Amil

7. MF Doom mask DESIGN stems from the movie Gladiator


8.K Solo

9. Ice T said Will Smith's style was Walt Disney on the Arsenio Show sitting rest next to Will Smith

10. Fresh Prince use to whine about how people hate on him cause he made positive rap music when he got an award.

11. All Of The Above

12. New Jersey Drive vol.2

Square Dance Rap was a hit..why? Cause I never heard lived on the west coast and heard it. The radio played it over and over it. You prolly don't remember, but this was the age before Yo! MTv Raps and Rap City. Back when MTV shitted on rap.

I remember that it wasn't a hit...wanna know why?? because I grew up in the birthplace of hip-hop and nobody over here played that bullshit that's why....like I said earlier the definition for a "hit" unless its a bonafide "hit" examples include: Run-D.M.C.- Rockbox, Kanye West-Jesus Walks, Rob Base & E-Z Rock-It Takes Two, Ice Cube-Today Was A Good Day...etc..etc, is subject to opinion.....to me Mix Alot first bonafide "hit" was Baby Got Back......that was the first one from him heard nationally.......My Posse's On Broadway is what put him on the national map but I'm not sure that was a big-time "hit".....

For 85 yes it was a hit. Theres like 4 versions of the song. Its just a case of the song being bigger than the rapper. I guarentee they were playing it in NY.

And I'm telling you they weren't.......I was there how about you?? kill that Indy 500 noise trotter, ya don't know shit about 80's NYC, but now you're pretending like you do....

that bullshit wasn't a hit here....but maybe in the west and midwest it was...although I do question that too especially in the west because B.Shaw as an example wasn't aware of it like that and he lived west coast in the 80's......maybe that bullshit was played through the roof in Indy only?? so to you and yours that shit was a legit "hit" but not here in NYC...sorry mayne! lol

First off, Im from Utica, Ny, everybody knows that except you, I didnt come to Indiana until 2002, I bounced around in the military for a bit, and everywhere I went people were familiar with that song, when I was in junior high in Schweinfurt Germany I remember they played that song at a dance and people went nuts even though the song was already old. If I was from the midwest Id like midwest crap. As a kid in Utica NY, that song was playing on the radio, that and another big song called Smurf Rock by Gigilo Tony. I bet you havent heard this song.

LOL......my bad man, I meant you were straight outta UTICA....sorry mayne! Utica is that "shit", and was well outside the NYC radar screen when it came to anything hip-hop...Utica may as well have been Montana man, if you're really from there then you already know this...lo

By the way I'm familiar with that Smurf Rock joint....I'll call that one a mild "hit"...nothing on the level of a bonafide "hit like this one:


released in 1985 as well....and no denying this one was a "hit"......

Yeah, I heard of the Pee Wee Herman.

It was a case of the song being bigger than the rapper
