I'm looking to put some new stuff on my iphone for music. I'm intrested in some old school hip hop, 80s or early 90's stuff. Can anyone recommend some good stuff to check out? I don't care much for rap/hip hop these days, finding good artists is a rarity with the crap they play.

If you're looking for some music to put you in the mood for a drive-by or perhaps to kill members of law enforcement, I would suggest O.G. Original Gangster by Ice-T. NWA's prior release Straight Outta Compton has a similar gangland violence theme that will rattle the neighbors' windows and make them question themselves for being part of the establishment.

Holy crap Calvin, I am shocked you even heard of that!!!
Cool deal - that's "fresh" 
Phil,
If this is for your car to listen to as you drive then let me suggest:
Sir Mix a Lot - Posse on Broadway (thought I was gonna say "baby got back" didn't you?)
Eric B & Rakim - move the crowd
DJ Magic Mike - feel the bass
Big Daddy Kane - Aint no half steppin
Big Pun - I don't wanna be a playa no more
Nemesis - Munchies for your bass
Ice Cube - it was a good day
Ice-T - 6 in the mornin
NWA - Express yourself - Dopeman
Luniz - I got 5 on it
Slick Rick - Children's Story
Boogie Down Productions - JIMMY (funny as hell) - Criminal Minded
Geto Boys - My mind is playin tricks on me
Sugar Hill Gang - Rappers delight (a must have for any serious collector)
There's thousands I remember and I agree with you, the old school stuff was more creative and much more fun to listen to.
