Gang Starr - Check theTechnique

Taken from Step in the Arena, my fav hip hop LP of all time. Still stands up today as an amazing amalgam of a MC and DJ on top form. Many better writers than me have waxed poetical about this album, but this is one of the pieces of music that has had the biggest influence on my life, along with "Jazz Thing - Gand Starr" and "Rebel without a Pause - Public Enemy". It's something that the first time you heard it, it blew your mind, not just because of how great it was, but how it completely changed the whole game and your own preconceptions.

Inspired to write this by all the hype surrounding the ill health of Keith Elam. Get well soon brother...

Eric B and Rakim - No Omega

"..Rhyme everlastin, there’ll be no part two
Knowledge is infinite, once I start to draw
A better picture for your third eye, if you’re blind
You know with a mic, I’m a black michaelangelo.."

The greatest MC of all time...
