If rap music could be traced to one source point, this exceptional album would be it, without a question... featuring the classic "When The Revolution Comes"
The Last Poets stands as the true originator of hip-hop emceeing. With withering attacks on everything from racists to the American government even the bourgeoisie,
their spoken-word albums preceded politically laced projects such as Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On" and foreshadowed the work of hard-hitting hip-hop groups such as Public Enemy.
This record is an important moment in black American cultural history.
