Reviews
A posse cut (Public Enemy, BDP, Stetsasonic, Just Ice, Kool Moe Dee, Doug E Fresh, Heavy D, etc). For me although the cast is amazing & raps are pretty solid & conscious, it never quite took off due not being the most kickin' production of the time & having a bizarre Live Aid-esque group chorus hook!
