Snoop isn't "old school."

"Old School" refers to a distinct period in rap history. It is not a word used to refer to music from an earlier period in someone's career.

"Old School" came into being when "New School" did. There wouldn't have been such a thing as "Old School" unless the "New School" came along and referred to themselves as new school.

Leaders of the New School (featuring a young Busta Rhymes) were just that...the leaders of the "new school." Others were acts such as Young MC, Heavy D, Rob Base and DJ EZ Rock, and to a much lesser extent, Tone Loc. Basically, think any shitty rap music from 1988-93, and that was "new school."

The popularity of "new school" was short lived, as "gangster" quickly took hold. NWA spawned Easy E, Ice Cube and Dr Dre, who in turn spawned Snoop, Nate Dogg and Warren G, (and much later Eminem who spawned D12 and 50 Cent, who spawned G-Unit). Ice T was another prominent gangster rapper, along with MC Eiht, and Too Short, while not gangster, was considered part of that genre.

In the early 90's, when these "new school" groups came out and used the term "new school" to differentiate themselves from "old school" acts such as Run DMC, Slick Rick, Big Daddy Kane and LL Cool J, that is when the term "old school" came into being.

It's a particular genre of music, not a blanket term for anything older than new.

Not trying to be a contrarian, but the misuse of the term "new school" is a peeve of mine.
calm down psycho. like it or not, the phrase "old school" refers to something from the past.

Exactly.. like "old school" Metallica, or "old school" uh.. Britney Spears.. haha

It refers to their older stuff.. (Did I just use Britney Spears as an example? God I hate having so many female friends)

EDIT: I guess I offended someone with this post?? Instead of the dork telling me why I'm wrong, he dinged me to tell me I am wrong. Some people just don't know how to take constructive criticism.

I'll stick with Welcome to Buckeye City ...

Only bad thing is that they mention MoC a few times in the song...but they do give props to Buster Douglas.
Have you heard the Buckeye Anthem by Rythum & Ghetto? that is my favorite song out right now. They use the fight song in the background and it sounds badass! :banger: The only problem is that I can't find the song on the net anywhere and haven't been able to find the CD yet either.

Umm... I think he was saying 'old school' snoop as in the older snoop stuff (doggystyle, etc) and not the new crap he is doing... and not throwing snoop into a new school vs. old school label.
Which, if you read my post, is exactly my point. "Old school" is not a term for music from earlier in someone's career. Old school is a specific term for a specific type of music. To say "old school Snoop" is misusing the term completely.

Psycho? Being intelligent and knowledgeable makes someone "psycho?"

"Like it or not," if you use the term "old school" to simply refer to something old, you are misusing the term.

uhhh, sorry dipshit. but your "term" has evolved into a generic definition for anything that happened in the past. refute it all you want, but you are using the old school definition of "old school."
