The Rap
Industry
by Kevin Tucker
The Rap music industry is very
big, but there are several good
rappers that are still unknown. In
the music business you have to be
good and know the right people. In
the beginning, people used to
rhyme only for fun. Today's rap
music; however, is all politics.
The Bronx, New York is where
the originators of rap like African
Bambada, the Zulu Nation, and
Flash & the Furious Five began.
They went to the playgrounds and
entertained teenagers. If they did
a show it was for about 100
people or less. But they didn't
care; they just loved to rhyme.
Today with big stars like LL Cool
J, The Fat Boys, and Run DMC,
certain rappers can make
anywhere from ten to twenty-five
thousand dollars a night.
The Rap Industry is expanding
very rapidly with rappers like:
Doug E Fresh - known all over the
world as the greatest hip hop
entertainer.
Eric B. & Rykim - known for
having several hit albums with
their latest hit “Follow the
Leader."
Salt N Pepa - the best lady
rappers with their latest hit album
“A Salt with a Deadly Pepa.”
Kid-N-Play - their hit album
called, "Two Hype."
EPMD - their hit album
called, "Strictly Business."
Big Daddy Kane - with his album
"Long Live the Kane."
M.C. Rob Base - with his hit
album "It Takes Two."
And last but not least, Biz Markie
and M.C. Heavy D.
These are just a few of the
major rap stars that are known
throughout the nation. There are
several others and many more to
come in the future of the rap
industry.

Guns - N - Roses - Lies
by Mark Piedmonte
This newly released EP from rock's
hottest and hardest-working band
today has been defined as a gift to
the fans and an appetizer to satisfy
their needs until G'N'R's next
full-lengthg album. The eight song
EP contains four re-released live
recordings from 1986 and four
original acoustic tracks.
Side one of "Lies" is a re-release
of Guns-N-Roses' 1986 "Live Like a
Suicide" EP, consisting of four live
numbers recorded before the
release of the bands multi-platinum
"Appetite For Destruction" LA
"L.L.A.S." was known to be going
on the market for as high as $15.00
The band felt this was ridiculous,
and as a present to their legions of
fans, put the EP back on the
shelves for an appropriate nine
dollars
The second side is quite different
and quite good. Here we are treated
to a very different, unexpected side
of the boys as they jam out to four
acoustic songs. The highlight of
which is, "Patience," which was a
definite crowd pleaser on the band's
1987-1988 tour. In concert, the
song was performed in a more
rockish style, but on "Lies" it is slow,
easy moving, and very beautiful.
Gun's 'N' Roses promises to have
a new full length production in
stores soon, but for now we at least
have something to snack on. Check
it out.
