rtificial This sample flip for Eye Know has stayed in my head for decades. Classic album and a must own for anyone who is a fan of hip hop culture. Favorite track: Eye Know.

cullen jacob An absolute masterpiece in hip hop music. It’s a sound on the precipice of change from the Golden Age of the 80s into the bombastic 90s.
A colorful, sample-delia crafted trip from beginning to end that doesn’t once shy away from its uniqueness. Favorite track: Potholes in My Lawn.

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
