This isnt a genre of music, and doesn't deserve an encyclopedic entry. Theres old school, golden age, and modern era. This is just a quick term people use on the street to say its not old school, or its not old school or golden age.--Urthogie 16:29, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
This article is horribly written... and clean up all the "your mom" stuff please —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.144.171.89 (talk) 12:41, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
There is an actual "new school" in hip hop dating back to 1983 , so this article is misinforming people. I intend to re-write it completely. 86.44.6.14 (talk) 19:18, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
Done. Old article is here. It should really be called Popular hip hop 1999–2007 or some such. 86.44.6.14 (talk) 18:56, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
The long paragraph, "Bambaataa's first two records" has only one reference, and it is a Wikilink. The book needs page numbers included as references.--andreasegde (talk) 20:57, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
Because reference [1] is only a Wikilink to a two stub articles about the author, and his publisher. I realise that the ISBN number is in the article, but for this article to pass you have to go further than that. This is because anyone could reference a book ISBN, and then write anything they wanted. This is not suggesting that you did that, of course, but page numbers are needed in Notes/References. If you have the book, it is easy to do. If you don't have the book, then how do you know exactly what was written? It helps the reviewer of the article in the end. :)--andreasegde (talk) 12:43, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
You will see what I mean about the references when it is reviewed - wait until then... I moved the photos to where the people were first mentioned. You obviously don't need any help, so I'll leave you to it. Bye.--andreasegde (talk) 17:38, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
The new school hip hop article properly shows that Dr. Dre cannot strictly be considered old school hip hop, and already makes the point that "new school" has become synonymous with "contemporary" for many fans. Therefore the section that has been added headed Modern New-School Artists is superfluous and confusing. If editors want to talk about contemporary hip hop, there is an old version of this article linked in the section Wrongly Titled, which they can make into a new article if they should so wish. We can then link to it from here. Good? Not good? 86.44.23.66 (talk) 19:20, 31 March 2008 (UTC).
I noticed this article was once a good article nominee but was withdrawn. I briefly read the article I would highly encourage renominating it. I'll nominate it if necessary but I'd prefer to have the main author's (86.44.XX.XX) permission. Thoughts? ~ Eóin (talk) 19:12, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Hello. I'll be performing the GA review for this article. Here are some suggestions for improvement:
That's it. The article will be on hold for seven days to allow for improvements. Nikki311 23:05, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
Eóin has acted almost all of these suggestions, except one: as i said to him elsewhere, "i am kiiiind of wedded to the 'perhaps her greatest record', it's supported by sources, breaks up and helps make flow a chronological list-sentence, and is good info." The source I am adding for this (Shapiro) unequivocally calls it "her greatest record", is that enough to support us saying perhaps her greatest record? I don't mind if we have to lose it. I'm loathe to qualify it or quote and attribute it as it will break up the sentence, which i think works now.
I've thought about the image or template options myself in the past. I know the image I would like to have there: http://homepage.eircom.net/~spinningcat/adidas1.jpg . I'm sure I have read that this is the first appearance of the iconic Run-DMC logo, and I think I have read that that logo is the first rap group logo (as opposed to one-off fonts for record covers). But I guess I'd have to track down those sources before its use could be justified as a non-free image. Although it is the first single from Raising Hell, the album that made hip hop mainstream ... ? 86.44.16.82 (talk) 09:11, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
A few editors now have individually looked at the image use on this article as of this date's version (i.e. [1]), usually as a result of image use elsewhere. Since no discussion made it to this talk page, i thought a note might be useful. User:Bkell [2], User:Howcheng [3], User:Ricky81682 [4] and User:CBM [5] have all stumbled upon this page while working in the area of non-free image use, and all have let the image use stand to date. My reading of this is that a minimum of reading is required if one wants to understand this image use: the first two paragraphs of the lead, and the image rationales. If concerns remain, here is now the place to bring 'em. :) 86.44.24.200 (talk) 04:34, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
See Talk:New_school_hip_hop#GA_Review. So far all i've been able to find on this is a self-published blog and a news story that says "probably". In a consumerist age, this is an important, simple-to-ascertain fact. Why is coverage of rap so sucky? *weeps* 86.44.22.206 (talk) 05:21, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
New School is the MODERN era!1983 is definitely NOT new school.2000-now is new school.166.82.187.246 (talk) 01:51, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
