Product Description
QUITE SIMPLY THE BOMB Featuring tracks born in the home of live hip hop, New York's Lyricist Lounge. This legendary compilation includes work from De La Soul, Mos Def, q Tip, Jurassic 5 and Talib Kweli - unmissable!
Amazon.com
New York City's Lyricist Lounge parties are to hip-hop what the Apollo Theater was to soul: the place where young, hungry talent goes to be discovered. This double-disc set features some of the best and hungriest young rappers of 1998, along with some old-timers and ringers--KRS-One, sure, but Rage Against the Machine's Zack De La Rocha?--coming along to egg on the kids and preserve their cred. The hit is Mos Def's "Body Rock," with Q-Tip doing his best Urkel act; elsewhere, there's a lot of Wu worship. But the acts that have the most to prove--Jurassic 5 (who somehow recall a psychedelic-era Temptations), Rah Digga, Indelible MCs--make the most of their five minutes. The genuine MCs (De La Soul on the first disc, Kool Keith on the second) add to the fun. --Douglas Wolk
