A timeless staple of funk samples and cool flow.
This is the debut album by hip-hop duo EPMD. It is acclaimed as a historic work that established the East Coast style by making full use of funk sampling.
This is a monumental piece of early hip-hop, combining a heavy beat with a smooth flow. Despite its minimalist structure, it is overwhelmingly complete and had a huge influence on subsequent East Coast hip-hop. Characterized by a cool tone and meticulous rhythm construction, the duo's unity is outstanding.
