The first single from the Shady/Aftermath debut LP. It's a damn nice one as far as this stuff goes – Dre's increasingly baroque synth blips get a good workout here, as on the Get Rich LP, for a slower club grind. The B-side "Backdown" is another strong LP track. 12-inch, Vinyl record
The a-side hardly needs any introduction from us, an uplifting disco cut, with soaring, string-laden Gamble & Huff production, and the sort of mainstream appeal that's kept it in constant roatation for years and years! "Fancy Dancer" is from the Comodores heavier funk years, off the ... read more12-inch, Vinyl record
"Gold Digger" is another great single from Kanye West – with a minimalist funky clappin' beat track and a Ray Charles sample – plus an appearance by Ray-incarnate Jamie Foxx. The subject matter couldn't be more tired, but Kanye's vocal approach is still fresh, and the ... read more12-inch, Vinyl record
A sampler of material from Kenn Starr's solo debut Starr Status LP! "Against The Grain" produced by Illmind. "Waitin' On You" produced by Khrysis. "Back At It Again" features Median & M-Phazes and production by M-Phazes. 12-inch, Vinyl record
The a-side to this single is a solid club slammer from Jackie Moore – way different than her earlier southern soul work, and done here with a sweet Philly groove from producer Bobby Eli! The track burns and builds for a full seven minutes – really picking up steam but never going too ... read more12-inch, Vinyl record
"Get Down" opens the God's Son LP in some seriously commanding fashion, with familiar, but no less effective Salaam Remi JB beat production and Nas's most furious wordplay since his glory days. Essential!!! 12-inch, Vinyl record
"Thief's Theme" is the first single from the Street Disciple double album, one that's actually a hidden track on the LP. We never would have guessed that a sample of the riff "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" would sound so good, but here it is! 12-inch, Vinyl record
One of our favorite Factory Records club tracks – a percolated number that was equal parts New York and Manchester! The electro beats and slight Latin groove have a wonderful crossover downtown sound – as does the flatted sax bit that comes along with the hook – but the vocals ... read more12-inch, Vinyl record
