Synopsis

Album Description

Welcome to the Playlist series. We've fished through hundreds of tracks to cherry pick the perfect playlists. Not just the hits, but...the life-changing songs. The out-of-print tracks. The fan favorites everyone loves. The songs that make the artists who they are. You'll no doubt enjoy the sound of the beautifully remastered songs on this CD, unlike the compromised sound of an MP3 file. You might also like the fact that the packages are environmentally-friendly (no plastic, 100% recycled paper). But we think the thing you'll appreciate most about this Playlist is that even though you didn't make it, you might wish you did. This package has been created with the environment in mind. All of the paperboard is 100% recycled and 100% recyclable. Of course, we would prefer that you not throw this package or CD away. We would prefer that you keep it in your collection to enjoy for many years to come! Full liner notes, photos, and more included as a PDF file on this CD. Enjoy!

CD Reviews

Knowledge [Still] Reigns Supreme Over Nearly Everybody

Compay | New Orleans, LA | 01/26/2010

(5 out of 5 stars)

"If you're a diehard BDP fan (you are if you get the review's title), you'll love this compilation. Most of the tracks on this collection are vintage Kris Parker, some of his better known cuts from the early to late 90's.

If you remember the BDP hits of the late 80's, you'll enjoy tracks like "Jack of Spades" (made popular from the end credits of 1988's I'm Gonna Git You Sucka). If you're a fan of DJ Premier beats like myself, you'll love tracks borrowed from his Return of the Boom Bap album like "Outta Here" (also featured on Clockers). More than a few of the tracks are from his 1995 album, such as MCs Act Like They Don't Know (my favorite) and Rappaz R. N. Dainja, both produced by Primo.

If you have most of his earlier solo work, you already have many of the tracks on this compilation. It's still a great album considering they picked the tracks that weren't chart-toppers, but kept heads nodding. A great collection of hits from The Blastmaster, add this one to your personal rotation."
