get into an old school groove

To me, "rap" still means Run DMC, Grandmaster Flash, and the Sugarhill Gang. If you're also into old-school grooves, then OldSchoolCuts.com is for you. On the site's home page, you'll get a nice, succinct Introduction to Old School. From there, you may want to head to the news section, where you'll find regularly-updated tidbits from the still-thriving old-school world. (Did you know, for example, that FOX-TV is about to produce a mini-series about Russell Simmons?) The Reviews area is still under construction, but the Performers section's got some good, well-organized links. And just in time for the holidays: MP3 versions of performances from the 1981 Christmas Rappers Convention Live at Harlem World.
