We'd actually already booked Arabian Prince for BLOC before I in my ignorance discovered he was in the original NWA lineup with Dr Dre and Ice Cube. He's circled in red here on their iconic ''Straight Outta Compton'' album cover. Check out our BLOC myspace page for Arabian Prince's awesome electro track ''Professor X''.
If you're interested in where gangsta rap came from, this bio of Arabian Prince shows how he, Dr. Dre and another BLOC artist Egyptian Lover gave rise to a worldwide cultural phenomenon.
