I have to say I was a massive fan of hip-hop back in the day and when I cleared out the old draw of tapes a few years back I promised myself a new clean cd version of this amazing album.
For me it's full of memories, more than just music, it tell's stories makes you think and laugh but the raw beats and lyrics are why YOU have to buy this album, it sounds stripped back but crisp and tell's it's stories with no holding back.
Not to slate modern hip-hop but most of it's crap talking so called gangsters writing music at the side of the swimming pool at the Beverley hill's Polo club, this was music from the ghetto and the anger was explosive....
I bought all the back catalogue from Ice-T and the review is the same for them all, dont stop with one they should be a journey of one big album.....
