This album was so, so dope when it came out and it has stood the test of time. Large Professor put this album together magnificently from start to finish. Add in Rob Swift on the cuts…it’s a rap!!! Great post. Thanks
My bad…Ak did his thing, too!!!
“WE ARE NOT WORTHY, WE ARE NOT WORTHY”
thanks for this kevin. it’s the wrong the don covay & the lemon blues band track. “if there’s a will there’s a way” of the same album got used here.
there are also some vocal samples that are missing:
“dear diary” – masters of ceremony “cracked out” “checkmate” – positive k “a good combination”
“no exit”(intro)mc lyte “10 % dis”
Thanks for the check, Lexx… we’ll get this updated.
