I like this verse by ra the rugged man

The Rugged Man's flow is uglier than blind dates My mental is heavy like Heavy D & Chubb Rock combined weights I love myself, I'm so vain I'm not just the king of New York, I'm the king of the whole game Putting rappers in hibernation, they're hiding away For retirement they're racing, it's funny, like a pie in the face And devastating, made a mistake And you're waiting, debating, facing your fate And creating, hating, raping, imitating, the great And break in your place and taking your safe and taking your paper Paying for faking, this is history in the making, but wait Spit at the cops, I'm resisting arrest They wanna see me fry like a chicken wing and a breast The truth is, behind closed doors I'm a bit of a sissy Singing love ballads to bitches like Lionel Richie No joking, bragging and boasting hoping to get close and approach 'em Poke 'em, perking, and posing, putting poison in the potion Cooking the coke and cutting your throat and opening the potion Leaving you floating in the ocean You was Aaliyah rocking the boat and Leaving ya broken, you could get Smokey to second that emotion Explosion of flowing, overdosing, the chosen has spoken Sing

Omega Radio's 50 Years Of Hip-Hop. When the 'Brentwood Era' started, I had the dial on WBLS, one of New York City's hip-hop / rap stations. It not only signified the first-ever genre I'd pay close attention to, but also signified the beginning of personal cassette dubbing.

For a few years, I'd record as much as possible off to the right of the dial, then later on Hot 97 and Kiss FM. I'd capture Kid Capri, Kool DJ Red Alert, Funkmaster Flex, and Ed Lover, Dr. Dre, and T-Money of Yo! MTV Raps. Running concurrently was In Living Color, a rap-centric die-laughing comedy show that introduced us to the Wayans Brothers, Homey The Clown, Fire Marshall Bill, The Homeboy Shopping Network, and more. My formative years listening to hip-hop / rap lasted as long from middle school to graduating senior year. There's no shortage of mostly positive memories in Brentwood, in thanks to all of my cassette dubs from that era.

I returned to hip-hop / rap when I discovered WUSB a few years later and stumbled upon one of their shows, Ghetto Radio, who showed me a more underground side of things. Street FM, Eminent Audio, and The Basement practically changed my life because they introduced me to sampling culture, forever opening up a new world in getting to know more about myself. As soon as I became a Stony Brook student, I inquired about joining the station. Now, I became a dee-jay and gave back to our listeners the same way WUSB gave to me. It wasn't until my second run at the station (Winter 2013) when I started Omega Radio and took my show more seriously.

For 11 years, we've taken every chance we get to play hip-hop / rap. Our shows started when we did a five-hour bonus broadcast to usher in a new year: classic Seventies' vinyl classics on New Year’s Eve, then three hours of the rough stuff on New Year’s. Since then, we paid it forward by delivering all-time legends (The Notorious B.I.G., 2Pac), more golden-era cuts (EPMD, A Tribe Called Quest, Monie Love), the Eighties (Kool Moe D, MC Shan, Eric B & Rakim, classic old-school moments (Whodini, Sugar Hill Records, Afrika Bambaata), and even white-label underground releases (Lo-Down Click, Erule, Brother Arthur). Let's not forget the ladies of the game, either (Queen Latifah, Monie Love, MC Lyte, and Yo-Yo to name a few).

Later on, we introduced deluxe editions of our shows consisting of golden-era legends still doing their thing (KRS-One, Onyx, Dres of Black Sheep), backpack artists (Jedi Mind Tricks, R.A. The Rugged Man, the Griselda camp), beat tapes (Fuzzoscope, All These Fingers), and newer artists (clipping., Danny Brown, Obnox, Dabrye). We also made some legend specific tributes for Public Enemy, N.W.A. (edited for FCC quality-control), and The Wu-Tang Clan, which happened to be Omega’s most popular show to date. As long as it isn't Kanye West or TekashiSixNine, we're good.

The good news? There’s no sign of up stopping. We'll continuously re-visit our golden-era finds until they’re depleted, and may even consider re-introducing our white-label bonus shows. And we’ll still play our new, current, and relevant hip-hop, rap, and backpacker finds on our deluxe shows.

Found below is each and every hip-hop / rap broadcast Omega WUSB has broadcast up until this point. We urge you to check them all out. Want to re-visit an era with the most creative freedom? Any artists you missed out on? Trying to find a one-hit wonder you want to make a legend out of? No worries. We have you covered.

Here's to fifty more years of hip-hop - and you can all thank DJ Kool Herc for that.

It's kinda cool and funny to be in an era where someone can ask me who my favorite white rapper is and I can say "uh Ghost Mountain and Semetary probably, they've very organically recclaimed both "rural white guy" aesthetics and "school shooter" aesthetics by being genuinely kind, laidback, and accepting individuals with '95 Fords in fuck all nowhere California flashing boxcutters and hatchets in Affliction shirts and True Religion jeans so that's really cool. But I also really like all the crazy and innovative shit Lil Ugly Mane is doing. That R.A The Rugged Man feature on that one Jedi Mind Tricks track is genuinely impressive and also made me cry so I guess I can't count him out either."
