Like most any other child, you probably didn't really get into listening to music until you were around 10, probably 11 years old. And even then, you were probably just listening to the music at hand and not really concerned with anything else. I was around 10 years when I really started paying attention to who was who. But of course the year I turned 10 was about the year rap came out on the scene. So no you didn't experience old school hip hop when it was still new. Later, QD.
