Cover Notes: BDP's first album - and the only one to include the late DJ Scott La Rock - sounded harder than hell when it came out in 1987. Though the simple beat-box patterns on a few tracks sound dated, most of La Rock's tracks are bluntly effective, especially the AC/DC riff he appropriates on 'Dope Beat'. And KRS-One still performs most of his 'Criminal Minded' rhymes, because his audience knows them word for word: the ultraviolent dancehall of '9mm Goes Bang', the battle cry of 'South Bronx' (and its counterpart, the anti-Juice Crew screed of 'The Bridge Is Over', with its little Billy Joel homage), the catalog of La Rock's condom collection on 'Super-Hoe'. KRS bloomed later; here, he just rocked.

Extras: Metallic silver coloured vinyl.
