Golden Age Hip Hop

Golden Age Hip Hop is a genre of hip hop music that emerged in the late 1980s and early 1990s. It is characterized by its use of samples from old school funk and soul records, as well as its focus on lyricism and storytelling. It is often seen as a more lyrically-driven and socially conscious form of hip hop, with its lyrics often focusing on issues such as poverty, racism, and police brutality. It is also known for its use of jazz-influenced beats and its incorporation of elements from other genres such as reggae and rock. Artists associated with this genre include Run-D.M.C., Public Enemy, A Tribe Called Quest, and De La Soul.
