Slick Rick
Considered one of rap's greatest storytellers, London-born/New York-raised Slick Rick got his start as a member of Doug E. Fresh's Get Fresh Crew. Going solo in 1988 with the hip-hop classic THE GREAT ADVENTURES OF SLICK RICK, he became famous for his extended narratives told via a leisurely yet precise flow, one which has influenced numerous MCs, most notably the equally languid Snoop Dogg. Slick Rick spent five years in prison following a 1989 attempted-murder conviction. He was released in 1996, and dropped THE ART OF STORYTELLING three years later.
