 Notes  
     Spoonie Gee was the nephew of veteran R&B producer Bobby Robinson
     and one of the earliest rap artists. He was known as the 'love
     rapper', an image that was established by his first record, "Love
     Rap", released on his uncle's Enjoy label as the flip side of The
     Treacherous Three's "The New Rap Language". The bulk of early rap
     records reproduced an MC's party routine with a loose sequence of
     narrative, boasting, and call and response.
     Spoonie's initial outing, however, organized a hip-hop styled record
     around a romantic theme, coming closer to the lyrical norms of pop
     music. The intimate "Love Rap" was accompanied only by drum set and
     congas, and Spoonie's next record continued in a similarly
     minimalist vein. The voice-over on 1979's "Spoonin' Rap" stuck to
     more conventional old-school boasting but looks forward to the
     gangsta attitude in its jailhouse references. "Spoonin' Rap" was
     also prophetic in its use of flexatone and heavily echoed voice,
     suggesting the Jamaican connection that was denied in early
     interviews by some of the rap originators.
     In 1980, Spoonie collaborated with Sequence on a classic single,
     "Monster Jam," probably the last word on the series of "Good
     Times"/"Another One Bites The Dust" variations and a classic in the
     Sugar Hill vein, complete with a bone-crushing bassline and ecstatic
     crowd noises.
     Produced by Teddy Riley, Peter Brown, and Marley Marl.
