    I think the first hip hop song I ever heard was Lose Yourself..
    That shyt was playing everywhere then and I was like 11-12 y.o. not with the internet luxuries that we have these days..
    After that I went through the 4 Em's albums and I was checking every rapper I saw from Nas to any other outshines of the golden era,
    the whole west/east beef etc..

    Come on now, how we supposed to believe your first encounter with hip-hop was some Busta Rhymes though?

    I honestly don't remember anything resembling hip-hop before the age of eight... maybe Fresh Prince of Belair theme song but that was around 10-11 when I saw it randomly on TV.

    The s--- on radio in Aus was mainly rock/pop etc.
