Customer Reviews:
"More old skool Hip-Hop classics".......2005-08-28
I believe this was the 2nd compilation of old skool rap ever to hit the shelves back in '90. A sign of where a lot of these compilations would be heading to and setting a trend for "old skool" Hip-Hop compilations in the future. This CD is strictly classic material. No wack songs are found here. A definite classic!
this is what Rhino's "hip hop from the top" series should have been .......2005-08-13
They did things right on this collection, with all the 12" versions--except, ironically, for rapper's delight, which is the edit on this disc, and the long version on the other series! Track times:
1. rapper's delight (7:08)
2. fat boys (6:50)
3. white lines (7:28)
4. roxanne roxanne (5:10)
5. jam on it (7:55)
6. it's like that (7:23)
7. the message (7:11)
8. funk you up (6:30)
9. the breaks (7:41)
10. 8th wonder (5:44)
All are excellent cuts.......2002-07-20
I think all cuts on this CD are excellent! Very Highly Recommended.
Live Long and Prosper...........2000-07-22
....this is a great collection of original rap classix. UTFO, Kurtis Blow, Grandmaster Flash, Sugarhill. Get it for the hard, hard to find rarities "Jam on It" by Newcleus (wikki, wikki, wikki) and "Funk You Up" by girl rappers Sequence--which may or may not have current hit maker Angie Stone...? Is that the same one? Anyway, get it and remember 'ho-tel, mo-tel--hall-i-day inn...'
Jammin' Classic Raps!.......1998-07-15
Excellent bass! It will rock your car or house! Only disappointment: CD is missing 2 songs, "Egypt, Egypt and Heart Beat Rap". It could have been 5-stars!
