KRS-One- Return of the Boom Bap


I was told recently I need to get acquainted with DJ Premier and all of the early New York hip hop visionaries. So, like the white girl I am I did a little research and came across Return of the Boom Bap. This album is PHENOMENAL and a great intro to DJ Premier. Just listening to the album and hearing what KRS-One raps about makes you feel like a more intelligent and aware person when the albums over.
Black Cop- I didn't know black cops were a bad thing, but KRS-One makes a compelling argument, and shit its catchy.
Uh Oh- With a simple beat KRS-One tells a great story. His delivery on this song is crazy engaging too.
I Can't Wake Up- this HILARIOUS song is about a dream about being a blunt. actually. and its awesome, the best part of the song is when the blunt gets passed to Bill Clinton. And if you are looking for more great rappers just look up some of the people mentioned int his song.
