Wotupski's Top Twenty Jams (1987)

[K-Bee]

Now who or what is Wotupski I here you all asking.
Well...fact of the matter is that behind that mysterious name was no other than Poul Oakenfold. But this was before the Ibiza techno/trance days that led him to world fame.
Back in 1987 he was a Hip Hop Columnist for Blues & Soul Magazine.

This is his top twenty hip hop tracks from back then.

1. Spoonie G - The Godfather
2. Public Enemy - Rebel Without A pause
3. Roxanne Shanté - Have A Nice Day
4. Salt 'N Pepa - Tramp (Remix)
5. Eric B & Rakim - Paid In Full
6. Dymamix II - Just Give The DJ A break
7. The C.I.A. - My Posse & 2 Tracks
8. Ice T - Make It Funky
9. LL Cool J - Bigger And Deffer (full LP)
10. Kid *n Play - Last Night
11. Fat Boys - Wipeout
12. Davy D - Davy's Ride
13. Kool Chip - Jazz It Up (Remix)
14. mantronix - Scream (Remix)
15. UTFO - Ya Cold Wanna Rock With Me
16. Heavy D & The Boyz - Chunky But Funky
17. T. La Rock - This Beat kicks
18. Derek B - Rock The Beat
19. Grandmaster Flash - All Wrapped Up
20. MC Shy D - Got To Be Taken (Full LP)

Surely these must bring back some memories for all you B-Boys & Fly Gyrlz out there.
Happy downloading y'all (oooops I didn't say that

Eric B and Rakim - What a cool song!!!

Prefab breaks into Rapping Mode " THinking of a Master Plan" :D

#5 Is a definite Classic.

Prefab, that has gotta be one the dopest lyrical lines.

KB, already d/l'd a couple....great list!

[K-Bee]

Paid In Full is indeed a classic. Only one version in particular does it for me though. The "Seven Minutes Of Madness Remix" by Coldcut. A definitive 80's Hip-Hop moment.:thumbsup:

Hey K-Bee, got any more of those lists? That one was brilliant.
