The Compton Rapper Who Inspired Eazy E - The Toddy Tee Story

Compton hip-hop pioneer Toddy Tee sits down to talk about the early days of West Coast rap and what Compton's hip-hop scene looked like before N.W.A took the world by storm. Toddy Tee breaks down the story behind his legendary record “Batterram,” one of the most important early street records to come out of Los Angeles, and discusses how the song reflected what was actually happening in LA neighborhoods during the 1980s. We also get into the legacy of fellow Compton pioneer Mixmaster Spade, Toddy Tee's influence on the early West Coast sound, and his connections to Ice-T and Eazy-E. Most importantly, Toddy Tee shares memories of knowing Eazy-E before the fame, N.W.A and Ruthless Records, giving us a rare look at Eric Wright before he became one of the biggest icons in hip-hop history.
