old school.......2006-12-29

this is the best old school compliation cd that i have heard. each song reminded me of how this baby of hip hop has grown. don't leave the house without it.

Real Hip Hop.......2006-04-08

This is were Hip Hop originated from,if you like old school this is a must have.Especially those who grew up listening to Chuck Chill Out and Red Alert play these on the radio back in the day.Boogie Down Bronx Represents here!

Best history of hip hop CD available.......2001-07-10

Excellent anthology that covers the first years of hip hop/rap better than any other single CD available, with informative liner notes to put it all in context. The people who put this together have a good sense of history and including material from so many labels is a big plus. Everyone may have a favorite track that could have been added, but you can't fault what's here, although "Rapper's Delight" is the 4-minute-plus single edit and not the longer 12" version.

Awesome collection!.......2001-07-07

What a fun collection of classic hip-hop tracks! The two biggest classics are Rapper's Delight and Planet Rock (Many credit these two songs for starting the craze around rap), but there are tons of other hits from artists like Beastie Boys, Run DMC, Salt 'N Pepa, LL Cool J, Rob Base and tons more. This is a blast to listen to. A good companion buy would be Millenium Hip-Hop Party, which has almost every major hit not included on this album, but with only one or two repeats. This should definately be purchased by any hip-hop fan. It's a part of American musical history.

Awesome collection!.......2001-07-07
