Fu-Schnickens was an American hip-hop trio. Similar to Das EFX for their cartoonish lyrics and near-constant allusions to pop culture staples, they were the first Hip Hop artists to rap in backwards fashion. The Fu-Schnickens' popularity was brief but significant in hip hop history.
Their best known track is 1993's "What's Up Doc? (Can We Rock)," featuring basketball star Shaquille O'Neal.

Da Brat - Funkified
Da Brat has clearly displayed an album purely for a ladies night, which is undoubtedly reflected in the title of her fourth release – Limelight, Luv and Nightclubs. Those of you who have been faithful to the So So Def female rapper, Ms Shawntaee` Harris, may be a little surprised with the direction she has taken with this album. I don’t think we should expect her to hit platinum like she did with her debut, Funkdafied or with one of her best album’s to date, Anuthatantrum.
The reason why I say the direction has changed is perhaps previously we would have heard from Da Brat a representation of the streets and a touch of gangsta rap. However with her previous and current release, we hear echoes of what other female popular rappers tend to rap about – sex.
Now it could be evident that Ms Harris no longer wants to be classified as a ‘brat’ in this rap game.
Perhaps she wants to be seen as a woman who has been through sexual and relationship experiences just like any other female artist or is she altering her style to compete with others in the industry?
This is clear with the change in her image from her latest video to her album cover where Da Brat is dripped in Dolce & Gabbana, dressed in a black pair of hot pants and a matching corset…
I think you get my drift! Female rappers were doing it too.

The three formed the group in high school and caught the attention of producer Prince Paul with a demo tape of the song "Plug Tunin'". Prince Paul was also sometimes referred to as Plug Four.
The Plug names are alleged to come from the numbers that each bandmate's microphone was labeled on the soundboard. Posdnuos was always plugged into plug one, Trugoy was plugged into plug two, and so forth.

Wreck 'n' Effects - Rump Shakur
Now that's what i call a party! - I still get goose pimples listening to this - with Teddy Riley producing the single of the same name, this US vocal group announced their arrival of New Jack Swing.
Put together so successfully by the sensational Markell Riley (Teddy's brother funny enough), Brandon Mitchell (The Riley's half brother) - won't complicate things further and Aquil Davidson a mate. The groups career was rocked by the death of Brandon in a 1989 shooting.

Eazy - E - We Want Eazy (Exclusive Video)
Eazy along with Dr. Dre, Ice-Cube, MC Ren and Yellam, formed the original rap super group N.W.A. (Niggers With Attitude). The lyrics of N.W.A. shocked many listeners including government officials as other raps lyrics from that time discussed issues of economic and social upheaval.
Songs such as **** Police and Straight Outta Compton (L.A. West Cost) became huge anthems for the then urbanization and youth culture. Funny enough Eazy - E label was founded through drug money from Eazy's days on the streets.

But he rose above that to become one of the greatest rappers of all time. Ladies and gentlemen - I am in no way condoning drug use or the selling of drugs in a bid to modify or kick off your rap career, more to highlight the fact that America had huge rap talents who were unable to break through the music industry for various social and economic discriminatory reasons and found themselves using the only tool available to make the 'I have a dream' reality come true.
You may recall soon into his days with N.W.A tensions rose among members of the group which led to final separations and arguments. Eazy established his remarkable solo career from that point. Who can forget Dr. Dre's solo collaborations to raps prestige industry?
Eazy passed away in 1995 from AIDS. Sadly enough Eazy never made amends with the God Father of Hip Hop Dr. Dre. - Peace and love y'all. Life is short, make time to resolve petting disputes and arguments and listen to Eazy - E kick off by clicking the video button below.
