Now if we are saying N.W.A. innovated a new style of rap of with Gangsta Rap do they really get the credit as innovators, considering factually and honestly the first "Gangsta" rap song of all time within' the Hip-Hop community is widely regarded as Schoolly D's "P.S.K. What Does It Mean" followed shortly by the second Gangsta Rap cut with Ice-T's "6 In The Mornin'" Both of these tracks came before N.W.A. and legitimately heavily influenced their work once they started. So would it not be wrong to say N.W.A. merely helped popularize it as Dre did with the Chronic? I mean let's give credit where credit is due here if we wanna talk about the pioneers for the subgenre.
