When did weed become a part of hip-hop?

Shit came from P Funk man and Bootsy Collins and the escapades of R&B bad boys like Jmes Brown and Rick James ( I kno I kno two different eras but they were I conic so Blah). Curtis Blow started it back in 1979 and P Funk in 73. Look up George Clinton and Bootsy Collins

If you like Snoop Dogg you'll love them dre, easy, Ice cube took samples from most of their songs. Even 2PAC it was west coast funk baby "Pop lockin' it west coast style"

Kurtis Blow, what a legend. "Clap your hands everybody If you got what it takes 'Cause I'm Kurtis Blow and I want you to know That these are the breaks". I think you're right to be honest, I noticed Snoop has actually taken a lot of old school stuff and used it himself. Like Sugar Hill gang and the double dutch bus.

Or even bring it up at all in a rap song? Music is a big part of my life. Mostly hip-hop. But now that Im getting a little older and my kids are getting into music. It makes me wonder when did become so bad to say Im a gangsta rapper but I dont smoke. Jay Z is the only one I can think of that stresses the fact that he dont smoke. Yall know any more? Jus a thought that ran real fast across my mind.:stoned: But I Rating: 5
