Benchmark 80s electro – and also part of the blueprint for the sound of west coast hip hop – the groundbreaking work of ArabianPrince! Perhaps one of the most overlooked innovators of the west coast scene, ArabianPrince played an integral role in shaping the LA hip-hop sound, from the early electro days of Uncle Jam's Army to the gangster rap explosion of the late 80s. With the current electro resurgence in full swing, now is prime time to look back at his contributions, which sound just as fresh today as the day it was made. 10 tracks total spanning from '84 to '89, including solo tracks "Strange Life" & "It Ain't Tough", a few tracks with The Shieks including "Innovator" & "Situation Hot", and production work for others like Professor X, plus the NWA classic "Panic Zone". 2 bonus tracks for the CD: "Simple Planet" and "Beatdabeat". CD
"Supersonic" later went on to be the huge commercial radio hit – and it's got production by Dr Dre and the ArabianPrince! Other tracks include "Blame It On The Muzick", "In The Mix", "Let's Get Hyped" and "Time Tah Get Stupid". CD
