Midnight Marauders

Product Information

The New York crew is in particularly fine form on the mic throughout, while the backing tracks, which make great use of crunchy, head-nodding beats and hundreds of superb, hand-picked samples, are amongst the most intricately produced, groovy and deep ever committed to wax. However, the reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because the print on the outer sleeve is very low quality.

I have the VMP reissue of Panda Bear's Person Pitch and that is a HSM for sure (cut by Miles at Abbey Road). The album's sound is characterized by its innovative fusion of jazz, funk, and soul samples with clever and thought-provoking rhymes.

The album's sophisticated yet accessible style earned it widespread acclaim from both fans and critics, solidifying its place as a timeless masterpiece in hip-hop history.

But that's the thing, I thought Abbey Road had the monopoly on HSM, but I can't see anything connecting this release to Abbey Road Studios.

Midnight Marauders is more than just a collection of songs; it's an exploration of the group's artistic prowess and their ability to communicate relevant messages through their music. Easily recognized for their unique approach to rap music by employing jazz infused soundscapes to Afro centric rhymes, ATCQ was largely responsible for the popularity of a new genre that dominated the East Coast sound of the early 1990s. Hey Bonita, glad to meet ya For the kind of stunning newness, I must have foreseen ya Hey, being with you is a top priority Ain't no need to question the authority Chairman of the board, the chief of affections You got mine's to swing in your direction Hey, you're like a hip hop song, you know? The album is characterized by its unique and innovative fusion of jazz-infused beats, smooth flows, conscious lyrics, and socially aware themes. After their debut in 1989 with "Description Of A Fool," they gained popularity with hits like "Bonita Applebum" and "Can I Kick It?

The Infamous Date Rape-Dope song that deals with the situation when the real-love dating goes wrong. East Coast stomping was kicking it, drums were kicking it, Tribe and LONS were kicking it, everything from Scenario were hardly kicking it!

Best Rhymes and Life" is a mesmerizing and timeless album , released in 1996, the album effortlessly blends smooth, jazzy beats with thought-provoking lyricism, showcasing the group's unparalleled creativity and musical prowess. Review: We're big fans of these educational 7"s that often crop up, with a legendary hip hop jam on one side and the source of some its samples appearing on the flip. They were part of the Native Tongues Posse along with Queen Latifah, De La Soul, Black Sheep, Monie Love, and the Jungle Brothers. years later, LONS are back when i see Busta Rhymes performing in Brooklyn, thanks to Brooklyn hip-hop festival for bring back the Leaders Of the New School for the first time in 18 years! Like I said, I cannot stop listening to this, the album bangs from start to finish, and has quite possibly the best lyrical ending to finish an album out, ever.
