This is the First Part of Miami Bass History.
Yeah, first question is What Miami bass IS?

Miami Bass is a style of rap music made in miami during 80s and 90s.
The 1st element you’ll recognize is the cool drum machine sound. Miami Bass is well-know for the use (and abuse!!) of Roland Tr-808 Drum Machine. Other elements are Vocoding and weird pitch-shifting vocals. Lyrics are very explicit and they talk mostly about street stories and women. Inside this compilation you can listen to Miami Bass classic like “Bass Rock Express” from MC Ade one of the first miami bass record.

It’s important remembering the huge popularity of miami bass due to the promotion received in South Florida by local Djs, radio and clubs. Djs like Luke Skywalker, Norbert Morales and Nice’N Nasty contributed to spread the Miami Sound in Club like Pac-Jam, Video Powerhouse or Studio 183. Heavy-Rotation radio programs on WEDR or Power 96 helped expanding popularity of Miami sound around United States. Miami Bass is still produced today and is very popular inside Miami, Florida and everywhere a club needs good music to shake da booty!!
