Editor's note

Chubb Rock's sharp, conversational South Bronx hip-hop

A Juice Crew rapper whose late-'80s tracks like 'Treat 'em Right' felt direct and unpolished.

For a good sense of his approach, try 'Treat 'em Right' or 'The Chubbster.' They've got that unpolished, conversational feel he was known for.

Chubb Rock came up in the South Bronx during hip-hop's early days, and his style had a plainspoken quality that cut through the noise. Songs like 'The Regiments Of Steel' and 'Treat 'em Right' weren't just party records, they talked about what was happening around him. That debut album established him as someone who could hold his own in a crowded New York scene.

He joined the Juice Crew in the late 1980s and put out his self-titled debut in 1988. By the early '90s, tracks like 'DJ Innovator' showed he was paying attention to how the sound was changing.
