A Pic Of Hip Hop Legends- LL Cool J, Doug E. Fresh, Flavour Flav, & Slick Rick

Check out this pic of hip hop legends; LL Cool J, Doug E. Fresh, Flavor Flav, and Slick Rick. The pic was taken recently backstage of The Legends of Hip Hop Tour.






All these rappers started out rapping in the 80s. LL Cool J was the first artist signed to the legendary Def Jam Records, and he dropped his first album (Radio) in 1985. Doug E. Fresh and Slick Rick (known as MC Ricky D at the time) were a duo in the mid 80s, and released two hit singles- "The Show" and "La Di Da Di". Slick Rick later left the group, and singed with Def Jam to release his solo debut album, The Great Adventures Of Slick Rick in 1988(In my opinion, the best story telling hip hop album ever released). Flavor Flav was the member/hype man for the politically conscious rap group of the 80s, Public Enemy.
