Schoolly D

Jesse B. Weaver Jr., better known by the stage name Schoolly D, is an American rapper from Philadelphia, PA. Schoolly D teamed up with DJ Code Money in the mid-1980s. His lyrics reflected urban realism, violence, and sexual bravado, making Schoolly D's music one of the precursors to gangsta rap. He later embraced an afrocentric style, working together with KRS-One.
