Quoteuptownkid BM31 is right...that track is, '4, 3, 2, 1'....it came out in '97. this is the joint that LL released a second version becuase the original version had Canibus on it, where Canibus dissed LL (on his own track). I believe that story goes like this: Canibus dropped his verse before LL. LL heard it, got offended, wrote and spit his verse dissing Canibus. One wayby DJBoomBap - Crate Digging: Hip Hop

I agree with just about everything said here, but I think you can have a classic right away. Dr. Dre's 2001 comes to mind. You knew the second you heard it, it was gonna last. Biggie's Life After Death is another one of those. @BM31: I could name off 100 classic rap songs way faster than I could R&B (Unless I just counted Motown).by DJBoomBap - Crate Digging: Hip Hop
QuoteBeatlover I always preferred E-Double. Me too, he had/has more flavor to me, a little more funky soul. I always wondered how The Green Eyed Bandit would sound without his speech impediment, and if the cards would have played out the same if he didn't.by DJBoomBap - Crate Digging: Hip Hop
The Boot Camp Click is one of my all time favorite groups. I listen to something from BCC daily. Ill emcees all around. Sean Price seems to be the only one really making moves still, or at least lately. I would have to put Black Moon as my fav sub-group, with Heltah-Skeltah at a close second. Evil Dee has always been one of my fav producers, and laced these fellas good.by DJBoomBap - Crate Digging: Hip Hop

QuoteBM31 Yes, talked with The TapeMaster Troy L. about this sometime ago.RC. The issue was that in the artwork itself there wasn't a whole helluva lotta room to put a bunch of the mainstays. My peeve was that Disco King Mario's main place J.H.S. 123,Grand Imperial Kenny Ken's 100 Park along with,Rosedale and Castle Hill parks and Stevenson High School was too significant to oveby DJBoomBap - Crate Digging: Hip Hop

That Dead Prez joint for sure. I always dug "Put your handz where my eyez can see", it's my favorite Busta track. It's weird, got everybody saying "Dealio", had an infectious beat (that I still can't get enough of), the video was CRAZY, and I think it had a lot of influence on dance rap after it. T.R.O.Y. is way up there for me (for pre '95).I think tby DJBoomBap - Crate Digging: Hip Hop
