Strictly Business 1988 Album

EPMD

This is one of the few '80s hip hop albums I can really get into from beginning to the end thanks to the excellent original funk-inspired production! The only reason it doesn't score higher marks from me is because one or two tracks drag on a touch, and both MCs do have a bit of a boring flow. - I think Erick gets much better in this regard with future albums. But for the time it was released it's a quality album, particularly from a production point of view. Best Tracks: Strictly Business, Let the Funk Flow, You're a Customer, The Steve Martin, Jane.
