    Here's what some icons have to say about the book!!!
    Ice-T: "Respect to Soren Baker for documenting the history of gangster rap in these pages. Some hate it. Some love it. But you can’t deny its brutal, hardcore honesty."
    The D.O.C.: "History has so often been written by the victors, that you very rarely ever get the real story behind anything. So it’s really important to hear from the people that were there, which is exactly what Soren Baker shares in this book. He writes about it and he’s honest about it."
    Xzibit: "Hip-hop changed the world. Gangster rap changed the narrative, and then changed the world again. Soren Baker has been a very integral part of documenting hip-hop on the West Coast for as long as I can remember. I don’t think anybody is more qualified to write this book."
    Leslie “Big Lez” Segar: "Soren Baker has changed the perspective of gangster rap by putting his pen to paper. He has given hip-hop power, proven its potential, and made non-believers contemplate all of its possibilities. The truth in his writing leaves no stone unturned, something he's done again with The History of Gangster Rap. Soren doesn’t just champion hip-hop. He also reveals its flaws and its truths."

    Even though they were pushed into a gimmicky direction, the Disco 3/The Fat Boys were always lyrically top tier in there era. The first album stamped and sealed that fact. But I remember around 86-87 I wasn't trying to hear them at all. Sadly, being young, changing landscape of hip hop and having an overzealous manager pulling the strings and pushing the gimmicks was the nail in the coffin. But they will ALWAYS go down as Hall Of Fame legends and pioneers.

      @DIGITAL TRADE MUSIC Eh...I think NY held strong through 94. Even after the West started influencing things.
      I'm talking more about the shift in NY after Rakim in 86...and really back to 85 with LL, rap def got more lyrically dense. The 'old school' way of MCing was out. Plus the fact that Fat Boys had really become parody rap in a sense. Wipeout, Chubby Checker etc...
      It just wasn't the look anymore. I mean, it wasn't even about being super hardcore...because there was Jazzy and Will, Kid N Play etc... But I really think they were casualties of bad choices.
      Markie Dee (RIP) was actually able to reinvent himself and hope onto the New Jack Swing sound, which again, showed that the talent was still there. But the 'Fat Boys' thing wasn't gonna survive into the 90s...
