J-Swift handles about 40% while (then) no names like Minnesota, Rockwilder, Fred Wreck, Sir Jinx and one or two others fill out the rest of the production lineup. The sound jumps back and forth between western funk and eastern thump. The guest lineup is equally diverse with names like Outkast, Raekwon, Kurupt, Carl Thomas and Ice T showing up to give an assist along with the expected names like J-Ro, E-Swift, and Xzibit. The end result is a solid album that showcases Tash at peak form. It's funny, it's lyrical, and it's evident that Tash put a lot of thought into this album. You'll enjoy this one...<br /><br />Also included is a bonus disc that came with it called Tape Proprietors. It's basically a showcase of the talent on the</span><span style="font-family:arial;"> (now defunct)</span><span style="font-family:arial;"> Loud Records roster. Names like Inspectah Deck, Raekwon, Project Pat, Mobb Deep, dead prez, IGT (who?), Tear The Club Thugs, Big Pun, Beatnuts, and one or two others. You probably have the songs on the disc already, but I threw it in there anyway.

Dude had a way with sounds that I thought (and still think is) out of this world. He hadn't quite perfected his sound on this 2000 release, but it was still light years ahead of anything out at the time. Interesting features from Kurupt, Busta Rhymes, Q-Tip and others makes it all that much sweeter. Baatin (R.I.P.) & T3 held down the lyrics as well. It's mostly a platform for Dilla's beats, if you ask me and the beats here are smooth, laid back and funky. Dig into this one, y'all.<br /><br /><a href="http://5e701313.linkbucks.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">Fantastic Vol. 2 [Barak / Goodvibe Recordings 2000]</span></a><br /><br />1.

I dusted this album off earlier today and found that he really did top notch work on the boards. He produces, arranges, and composes every track on this album. Muggs enthusiasts probably have this one already, but anyone not familiar with his board work should jump on this one. It even boasts a nice multidimensional lineup from Goodie Mob to MC Eiht to Wyclef. This one is sure to please.<br /><br /><a href="http://5f38938f.linkbucks.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">Muggs Presents...The Soul Assassins, Chapter 1 [Columbia Records 1997]</span></a><br /><br />1.

I didn't know much about CMW at the time, but I bought the Boyz N The Hood soundtrack a year or two beforehand and that album had a dope CMW track on it. Back then, you could buy blind if the artist was dope. Anyway, I saw the video for "Hood Took Me Under" and immediately decided to purchase it only to find that the video version for that track was a remix. I was let down somewhat, but the rest of the album more than made up for it. dope beats, dope rhymes. It's all here. Eiht was at his best on these early CMW albums (there are two more before this one), so make sure you check out all of them.

The rhymes are dope, for the most part, and guest appearances add tremedously to the album.

Hardcore Worldwide is one of the first live recordings in the genre and I remember diggin' it from day one. The sound quality tolerable for a live show with so much bass.

Though it was solid, I didn't quite get what the buzz was about. 11 years after its release, it's grown on me a little, so I figured I'd thrown it on here after giving it a spin or two. The lineup is pretty solid, but it's not 100% hip hop; there's some R&B joints sprinkled throughout. The production is solid and even the R&B joints are pretty good.<br /><br /><a href="http://4421cdc1.linkbucks.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">Streets Is Watching Soundtrack [Roc-A-Fella/Def Jam 1998]</span></a><br /><br />1.

Fast forward to 2005... I wound up coppin' all of his shit on wax from a flea market/thrift store spot in Montgomery, Alabama for less than $35. Turns out that I remembered a lot more than I thought after giving him a few spins. Either way, I figured it's be cool to get some older rap on the site since the name of it would accurately suggest a strong yearning for old school rap. Here's his second LP. It plays more like an EP, and the beats are your typical 80's styled beats, but it's great for pop locking to if you're still into tha sort of thing. Just don't expect mind blowing lyricism; things hadn't got all that complex in '81, I guess...<br /><br /><a href="http://b55e8509.linkbucks.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">Deuce [Mercury Records 1981]</span></a><br /><br />1.

I didn't know it at the time, but it was the BDP remix produced by Krs-One. The lyricism was on point and the production was fine, but it was Tat Money on the 1's and 2's that demanded my attention. He killed the last few seconds of that song. He was so good that it compelled me to go and get my dad's turntable and wear out his records. Anyway. I eventually copped the album and was bummed when I found out the remix was nowhere to be found. I quickly tossed the album on the shelf and left it there for years. One day, while looking for albums to trade in, I figured I'd give it a listen to see if it was worth trading in or not. Turns out the album is pretty good. Production is your typical late 80's fare with Steady holding down the entire album on his own. It's not required listening, but I'm glad I gave this one a chance. It's definitely worth holding on to. Oh, and I threw the remix in there for those that haven't heard it. In hindsight, the remix isn't all that different from the original, but I still love it more. I think will.i.am sampled this joint when he did that track on Chrisette Michelle's debut album. Crate junkies probably already knew that though...<br /><br /><a href="http://f5e097b7.linkbucks.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">Let The Hustlers Play [Jive/RCA Records 1988]</span><br /></a><br />1.

I purchased the second installment of Hip Hop Forever (mixed by Jazzy Jeff -- it's a classic; get it if you haven't already) and there was a track called M.I.A. on it that stood out to me somewhat. Anyway, it turns out that Missin' Linx consisted of Al Tariq, Black Attack, and Problemz. I'd only heard a few underground 12" singles from Black & Problemz, so I wasn't really that familiar, but I already had God Connections, so I copped this on the strength of how dope that album is. The end result is a short (6 tracks, just over 23 minutes) and so-so release comprised of typical Y2K production from the likes of Necro, Alchemist, Adam 12, DJ Emz, and V.I.C. along with some dope lyrics. Though you'll rarely (if ever) hear from these guys again, I'd have to say it's not worth the king's ransom that I see it going for online. It's definitely worth coppin' if you can find it for a nice price, though.<br /><br /><a href="http://85f90231.linkbucks.com/"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">Exhibit A [Stimulated Records 2000]</span></a><br /><br />1.

As we all know by now, RZA handled the production and Ghostface appears as a "guest star" for what went on to become one of the illest Wu albums ever.

In fact, despite diggin' a few of the singles, I thought they were really, really corny. Well, their sophomore effort, which was criminally underrated, answered the question of what they were capable of if they just ditched the gimmicks, went to the lab, and rocked over some tight production. Sure, some of the gimmicks surface here or there, but the overall outcome was nothing short of top notch. Though the first album was a top selling pop smash, this is the album that made official heads recognize skill.<br /><br /><a href="http://57bff24a.linkbucks.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">All We Got Iz Us [JMJ/RAL/Def Jam 1995]</span></a><br /><br />1.

The internet was buzzing about them, but I didn't know much about downloading, so I got on Limewire and downloaded like 3 tracks. That's all it took, though, because I was hooked after hearing them. It took me about a month to download the entire album (lol) due to a crappy connection and not much availability but, when I did get the whole thing, the CD stayed in rotation for about 5 months straight. I mean, I didn't play anything else during that period -- car, iPod, whatever...it was all LB all day. I was floored by the production and the two rappers -- Phonte and Pooh -- were on some "have fun with it" type of vibe. I pretty much bought anything with their name on it from that point. Fast forward to 2009 and I still call this one a classic. They hadn't been well worn by the industry yet and their music reflected that. That element is what's missing from subsequent releases, in my opinion, but I'll forever be thankful for this overlooked gem.

This is the album that launched Slick Rick into the stratosphere and made him a household name.

The album doesn't reall need a description if you have any idea who Slick Rick is -- the album is a certified classic. Anyway, I'm dropping his entire solo discography on the blog.

I don't mean that in a bad way, but you can sort of tell that he didn't deviate very far from the original script, if you will. While just as dope, Rick failed to yield any timeless singles this time around. To his credit, the album was rushed because of a jail sentence was hanging over his head. I'm under the impression that he would've put out a stronger product if he had the time to do so. That said, it still went gold, but it failed to reach the bar that he set so astronomically high with his debut...<br /><a href="http://0b55f88e.linkbucks.com"><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">The Ruler's Back [Def Jam 1991]</span></a><br /><br />1.

The production is handled by Pete rock, Large Professor, Easy Mo Bee (so underrated), and Prince Paul. I don't think Rick has released anything that would get less than 4 out of 5 from this listener and this album is no exception...<br /><br /><a href="http://d81fb61a.linkbucks.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">Behind Bars [Def Jam 1994]</span></a><br /><br />1.

It's not bad at all. As a matter of fact, it's pretty good. I expected a fall off from Ricky D after such a long layoff, but he proved that he still had it, in my opinion. There are a handful of so-so tracks, but the majority of the album is nothing but solid production and tight rhymes...Rick still has it. Now, I just need a new album from him...<br /><br /><a href="http://b3a15244.linkbucks.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">The Art Of Storytelling [Def Jam 1999]</span></a><br /><br />1.

Most of the production is handled by 4th Disciple and True Master with RZA, Supreme, and Wyclef sprinkling in a track here and there. The overall product is nothing short of dope if you like your hip hop with a heavy dose of east coast boom bap.<br /><br /><a href="http://13bf4ff5.linkbucks.com"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">The Last Shall Be First [Red Ant Entertainment 1998]</span></a><br /><br />1.
