KRS ONE 1995 Album

KRS-One

Album commandment 101; Thou shalt not begin an album with 90 seconds of boring speech. Once past that, the heat comes. DJ Premier gives us 'Rappaz R. N. Dainja' and 'MC's Act Like They Don't Know' that are great, with the latter being one of KRS's best. 'Free Mumia' is KRS at his emotional best. I love the vibey 'Health, Wealth, Self' that closes the album too. The amount of truly high-quality songs of 'Return of the Boom Bap', that is one of my favourite hip hop albums, aren't here, but KRS went for a different sound with this and it's a consistent piece of work. Best Tracks: Rappaz R. N. Dainja, MC's Act Like They Don't Know, Health, Wealth, Self
