2hype-wide

I’m being extremely lazy tonight, but I want to get this up.  Peep what wiki says about this album:

2 Hype is the debut album by rap duo, Kid ‘n Play. The album was released in 1988 for Select Records and was produced by Hurby Luv Bug and The Invincibles. 2 Hype was a success for the duo, reaching #96 on the Billboard 200 and #9 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and being certified Platinum by the RIAA. Three singles found success on the Hot Rap Singles chart, “Rollin’ with Kid ‘n Play” (#2), “2 Hype” (#19) and “Gittin’ Funky” (#24). In 2008, “Rollin with Kid n Play” was ranked number 63 on VH1′s 100 Greatest Songs of Hip Hop.”

This is another album from the GREAT year of 1988.  How many dope albums came out that year?

    I’m one who likes to connect the dots so here goes. Haven’t confirmed this but I think this should have been in the Kid n Play sample set as it was also used for “Last Night”. All confirmations or corrections are welcome.
