4 out of 5 stars The BEST 1990's live-concert Hip-Hop album!.......2007-06-04

Live Hardcore Worldwide--
Released in the spring of 1991, Live Hardcore Worldwide documents several live concert performances by Bronx-based Golden Age rap group Boogie Down Productions. Culled together from performances in the USA, the UK, and France, frontman KRS-One rhymes with much confidence throughout all the selections. He is aided by various members of the `BDP' family of co-vocalists and DJs like Kenny Parker, D-Nice, Ms. Melodie, and Jamal-Ski. However, this was recorded well before videos became a defining element of the music's promotion and also predates the contemporary trend of `posse-heavy' rap shows which leave much to be desired for the rap enthusiast.

A balanced selection of songs is performed from BDP's then-catalog of Criminal Minded, By All Means Necessary, Ghetto Music and Edutainment. "Poetry", "Stop the Violence", "Jack of Spades", "Jimmy", "South Bronx" and more are heard here, bolstered by thankfully competent audio techs (another potential drawback for many rap concerts). Despite the handful of posse members, this is not the rap show where the main person lets someone else do half the rhyming; there is also no lip-synching. The one downside is that some songs are only performed in excerpted form. There are a couple of unreleased songs performed here, like "The Eye-Opener", which makes this more than just a live-greatest-hits disc. If this was to be re-released, it should include a DVD with the concert footage.

5 out of 5 stars NEVER Be ANOTHER!!!.......2006-08-05

I got this cassette when it first came out and have never heard anything like it, and NEVER will. Back then I was rockin' it on my small box with 30 watts and it was STILL LIVE. I'm listening to that same cassette now, 2006. This was creation from above. KRS & BDP--dem bwoy na play 'round pon dis 1, overstand. Sound-CRISP, Lyrics-CRISP, Riddims-CRISP. De 'ole cassette jus sweet. GOD know.

STRAIGHT!!!!!!!!!!

5 out of 5 stars Unbelievable.......2005-02-21

When I was younger I had this on tape and I listened to it over and over until the tape wore out. This is such an incredible example of a case where the live stuff is ten times better than the studio stuff. The unbelievable rawness and delivery of lyrics -- the beats, the melodies, it's all top notch.

Most of the rap I've heard live today sounds very scattered and out of time, where the music and the lyrics sound like they are two things -- not the case with this. This sounds like it all belongs together.

By far the best live rap/hip-hop I've ever heard.

5 out of 5 stars pure niceness..........2003-07-25

I always appreciated BDP, owned their records, know KRS One's lyrics, hooks, etc...but I don't think I really got the importance of this crew until I heard this set...BDP and their peers, the whole the class of '88 (Big Daddy Kane, Marley Marl, Pete Rock, I could go on for days) were as raw ever...not to mention that every great track from this era was full of flavor (THINK the piano sample in Kool G Rap and Polo's Road to Riches)...the fact that you are even reading reviews on this record right now let's me know with almost 99% certainty you'll quickly understand what I am talking about the second you hear this...dancehall fans watch out for the kuff, stalag, death in the arena riddims, as well as '9MM' over an answer version, and one of my favorites, the koloko...bottom line: this is the blueprint...

5 out of 5 stars The Greatest Live Hip Hop Album Ever, PERIOD.......2001-02-08

I listened to this when I had it on tape so many times, the tape wore out and I had to buy another one. It is a compilation of live KRS-1/BDP concerts in NY, Europe, London, ect. KRS-1 is a better MC live than on CD. And that is not a disrespect in the least because on CD he is still the greatest. The only way he would lose in a rhyme battle is if he battled himself. Side A is better than side B, but both are dope. The first 15-20 minutes are so hype, especially when they make the transition from "Jack of Spades" to "My Philosophy", this is so hype that at times it has caused me to lose control of my bodily functions. Another hype part is his freestyle over the "I am still #1 beat". The bottom line is: If you could only buy one KRS-1/BDP album, BUY THIS ONE! If you don't like this one, maybe you should start listening to guns and roses. This album gets a 5 (almost a 6!) on the Mark D hype scale. (See the "More About Me" section for more details on the scale.)
