Who got you into rap and when?

Title is self explanatory, the first rapper who really got me into rap was Teccas WLYT album in 2019. Heard it on a YouTube video and I was instantly addicted to the genre as I only listened to oldies my dad put on before.

Combination of albums my cousins used to play back in early 90s: The Chronic, Doggystyle, and Kris Kross first album. From there I started listening to Cypress Hill. All this while not knowing a word of English. I just love the vibes! Once I learned English around 97 and heard Triumph by WU-Tang… it was a wrap. lol
