Schoolly D (born Jesse Bonds Weaver, Jr., June 22, 1962) is the Ur-Example of Gangsta Rap. Among other career highlights, he is notable for the following: The single "P.S.K. (What Does It Mean?)" was the first Gangsta Rap track, as the song loosely alluded to the gang Park Side Killas. Ice-T admitted that this was his inspiration to rap about his own gang experiences. His collaborations with independent film director Abel Ferrara, who used Schoolly D songs in quite a few of his movies, including King of New York and Bad Lieutenant, as well as letting Schoolly D score his movie R Xmas. He even has a feature especially devoted to him on the DVD release of King of New York. His song "Signifying Rapper" was the result of a lawsuit due to the fact that it was based around the Led Zeppelin song "Kashmir". The rock band didn't even notice until the song was featured in Bad Lieutenant. He wrote and performed the theme song for Aqua Teen Hunger Force and was the narrator for the first two seasons.His career has produced many notable albums and classic Hip-Hop tracks.
