“The Sound of Old School Nederhop” is a deep dive into the gritty, unfiltered roots of Dutch hip-hop. This playlist brings together raw classics from the underground scenes of Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and beyond, showcasing the evolution of Nederhop from its early rebellious days. With tracks by legends like Osdorp Posse, Def P & Beatbusters, and Extince, it captures a time when Dutch MCs were carving their own space with sharp wordplay, political edge, and unconventional flows.
From the controversial energy of “Neukende Politie Deel 2” and “Vieze Geile Del” to thought-provoking cuts like “Van Wieg Tot Graf” and “Klokkenluiders,” this collection reflects the diversity of themes and tones that shaped the genre. It also includes lesser-known gems by acts like Zuid-Oost Posse, Uitverkorenen, and West Klan, making it a solid listen for anyone interested in the early days of Netherlands’ hip-hop movement. Raw beats, Dutch slang, and local swagger—this is Nederhop before the mainstream.
