    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."

    Good to see them together again, there was another FIRE version of Dwyck on a single or promo that I played over and over and over. Soren B got the best interviews, it's all about the artists. By the way, I still got my Jewel of the Nile album from high school, I'm 49 years old .

    Nice and Smooth are Dope. Nice had a good point let the rappers do what they do and the business side do their thing. Underground has pretty much solved that problem though. RA, Czarface, Doom RIP.

    Greg Nice has a big point. First bring back the DJ's and let them break new music. Second take out the payola to the radio stations.

    They were cool but I never really felt these dudes..they were more on the watered down sound back then..Greg nice saying "Dizzy Gillespie plays the sax" was one of the dumbest lines I heard because everyone knew he played trumpet.

    Dwyck saved them. Daily Operation had no bangers on it other than "BYS". Too bad the song was ruined by Smooths cringy verse.

      Daily Operation is a classic album. Smooth Bees verse is still repeated by many today.
