Photos of Various Old School Legends Live at the 2010 Brooklyn Hip Hop Festival
And I mean to use the term 'Old School' above exactly the same way my dude, DJ Maseo from De La Soul meant it when he used it Saturday at the BHF: as a mark of respect and a badge of honor. All of these artists (from the top): Masta Ace, Craig G and Marley Marl of the Juice Crew, Dres of Black Sheep, Group Home of the Gangstarr Foundation, Pete Rock & CL Smooth and the Cold Crush Bros. are more than just footnotes in hip hop history to me....

Music: Masta Ace & EDO. G (A&E) - "Ei8ht Is Enough"
"Wednesday, Court Dunn dropped a brand new music video for Masta Ace & EDO. G (A&E), as part of his 1 Shot Music Video series with NahRight.com."
This song and video are both super-fiya ("Ed O is hard (pause)" / "I can understand the ocean by looking at a raindrop"). Props to Court & Eskay.

Video: Masta Ace on his First Day in the Juice Crew
From Media Gasface:
"In Canarsie, Brooklyn, Masta Ace is better known by the kids as Coach Ace. Almost all of them rap, but have no idea their head-coach is one of the best who ever did it. They'll get a pass, though: they weren't even born the day Marley Marl gave Ace a ticket into the legend by letting him in his mother's apartment in Queensbridge. Right here, the Masta finally tells the world how a guy from Brownsville ended up in the legendary Juice Crew, how he hooked up with Marley Marl, Shan and Craig G the same day Kool G Rap recorded his 1st track ever."
