Kool G Rap & DJ Polo "Ill Street Blues"

Nathaniel Wilson (born July 20, 1968), better known by his stage name Kool G Rap, is an American hardcore rapper from the Corona section of Queens, New York. He began his career in the mid-1980s as one half of the group Kool G Rap & Polo, and also as a member of the Juice Crew, who were involved in The Bridge Wars (widely regarded as the first notable Hip hop rivalry). Although significant commercial success has largely eluded G Rap, he has gathered a reputation as one of hip hop's grittiest, and most consistent lyricists. In particular, his multi-syllabic rhyme patterns have proven to be influential upon a slew of latter day rappers such as Nas, and Big Pun.
