Rated 4/5
Review by spork Feb 07, 2003
The title of this album and its cover both speak volumes about the music. If you ever find a copy of this album in a second-hand bin you'll know what I mean. All of the music on this LP was composed by Mantronix, and it's some of the most shameless and audacious use of the Roland 909 I've ever heard. This is a classic old skool rap joint that you can turn up the volume on anytime you want the neighbors to know there's a party in the vicinity.
