About martinstjohn
Expertise
I can answer general questions about the golden age of hip hop, mostly the 1980s breakbeat era. SInce i collected many rap artists Lps and tapes in the 80s, i can answer most song titles by lyrics.

Experience
Hip hop music is what got me into dj mixing in the first place. I still have those lps by rappers Mc Shan, LL COol J, UTFO, WHistle, Beastie Boys, Choice Mcs, Run DMC, Juice Crew, Kool G Rap, Mantronix, Ice T, 2 live crew, Biz Markie, Big Daddy Kane, Eric B and Rakim, Dana Dane, Stetasonic, Fat Boys, LA Dream Team,Kurtis Blow,Dj Jazzy Jeff and the fresh prince. In addition, i can answer questions about electrofunk that came from that era: Twilight 22, Newcleus, Egyptian Lover, Arabian Prince, Kyper,Cybotron, Reggie Griffin and Technofunk, Hashim. In addition to that my knowledge of 80s hip hop and r&b extends to the r&b/funk side with Cameo, Loose Ends, Lakeside, Gap Band, Sos band, and others.

Education/Credentials
2 years college..but i couldve had a college degree at a four year university with the money ive put out on vinyl records over the years.

Topic: Rap/Hip-Hop

Subject: Fat Boys song I think

Question
There is this song I liked that was not a popular song and it was a short time on the radio. I believe the Fat Boys sung it and the title of the song is You Be Illing. I loved this song and want to find it but I can't find it anywhere.

Answer
The song is You be Illin' by Run DMC from the cd 'raising hell'. The single wasn't the biggest hit it's true....However, the single did make it into the top 40 chart back in 1986, briefly. The song should be easy to find on a best of RUn DMC disc easily.
