Synopsis

Product Description

Traffic Entertainment and B Boy Records present one of the most influential and original albums in music history, ?Criminal Minded? by Boogie Down Productions. KRS-ONE?s combination of street slang and Webster?s dictionary knowledge backed with Scott La Rock?s hard hitting, minimal beats set this record apart when it was originally released in 1986. With this now classic debut album, BDP helped redefine the New York rap music scene. ?Criminal Minded? elevated the standards to a new level and proved that rap could be a dynamic and consciousness-raising medium. KRS-ONE has gone on to become one of the most prolific and critically-acclaimed artists in Hip Hop history. A true classic, ?Criminal Minded? was included in Vibe Magazine?s 100 Essential Albums of the 20th century.

CD Reviews

Holy Relic

Andrew R. Golden | Redwood City, CA United States | 03/08/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is more than a record. It is a religious sacrament. It is raw as f**k but it blow up any high-fi system at the same time. Deejay Scott LaRock's is guided by the holy spirits, Ouija board style. KRS-One blasts like a master...and it will blow your mind. This record is more than just a timepiece, it's a religion. Not only do the beats blast my head, but the lyrics are more infectious than a Vanilla Ice mushroom. Best when listened to driving down the west side highway, greened. I highly recommend this record for someone who craves something a little more human. It sounds like something that was recorded in the basement of your local high school by trespassers in the night, with a voice so loud it will crunk down on your cranium. Listen to the mindf*ck part on Sponsor, then listen to that part again and again and again and again and on into infinity."
