Today’s Weekend Jam goes to how hip-hop at one time influences the connection between a man and woman. I know hip-hop caught a bad rap of degrading the ladies by sexual exploitation, but the minority of hip-hop songs brought out the softer side of men who wanted to be with ladies. I now present to you: The Slow Jam Rap Songs:
“I Need Love” LL Cool J: I said it once and I will say it again, this is why they called him LL Cool J (Ladies Love Cool James).
“Hey Lover” LL Cool J feat. Boyz 2 Men: See “I Need Love” and classic sample of “The Lady in My Life” by Michael Jackson.
“Can You Get Away” Tupac: The legend of this song was that he was really writing a personal letter to Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes. Whatever the reason, great song off one the greatest album in my lifetime “Me Against The World”
“Brainstorming” MC Brains: Although the name and the song are just as cheesy and corny, it still was a jam to be with your girl and make a lil love.
“Callin Me” Mac: This No Limit alum switched it up from gangster to smooth talker, and the beat is still to this day a bonafide classic.
“How It’s Going Down” DMX: The ultimate crush and how I feel about you song. Classic material from the Dog.
What is your favorite rap slow jam?
