5 out of 5 stars "Classic Hip-Hop".......2005-08-27

When the "AWESOME TWO" (of 105.9 WHBI & WNWK in NYC) put this compilation together back in 1990, they selected nothing less than the best of what Hip-Hop had to offer of that good ol' beloved era, that we all miss and cherish. At the time ('90) there were no such compilations in existence of classic Hip-Hop. This one was the first, and through out the years, many followed their foot steps, and many classic rap tunes resurfaced, decades after their original release. But this compilation was a landmark compilation, for the fact that it was the first and remains one of the best and most complete to date! a must have for all classic Hip-Hop fans!

3 out of 5 stars not bad, good beat, pretty good lyrics.......1999-10-13

This isn't a bad Cd. I thought the lyrics would be better. I would still buy it!
