Action Bronson with a no nonsense approach on his second proper full length – also serving as an entry Blue Chips mixtape series – bringing a stripped to the core, rugged and raw style that's more than welcome at a time when he's a legit media personality when not spitting rhymes! The vibe is a nice mix of spontaneous and well crafted, with production not only by Party Supplies this time, but also Alchemist, Harry Fraud and Daringer. Includes "Wolfpack", "La Luna", "The Chairman's Intent", "Hot Peppter: feat Meyhem Lauren & Jah Tiger," Bonzai", "Let It Rain", "My Right Lung", "Tank" and "Durag Vs Headband" feat Big Body Bes, "The Choreographer" and "Chop Chop Chop". LP, Vinyl record album

A great post-disco track from the Aleem brothers, with a some very 80s production with heavy Linn drums and electro touches, and some nice soulful vocals courtesy Leroy Burgess, which are a bit buried too in the mix for our tastes. (Soul, Hip Hop) 12-inch, Vinyl record

The last of the Hilltop Hustlers... This is Cool C's biggest hit, based on the Sheila E. track of the same name. 12-inch, Vinyl record

Nice, slow pre-Chronic production by Dr. Dre. The noisy mix includes added samples in the Bomb Squad style. Somethingtabumpinyacar is an instrumental version with a short monologue by DOC. Portrait of A Masterpiece is an uptempo lp cut. 12-inch, Vinyl record

The classic debut album by the DOC, from the glory days of Ruthless Records – one of the few records on the label to live up to the brilliance of NWA at their height! Dr Dre handles the production here – and there's a razor-sharp edge that really matches DOC's wordcraft – as powerful as the rest of the Ruthless crew, but in a different way too – almost more sophisticated, with the messaged buried a bit more in the lyrics. Titles include "The Formula", "It's Funky Enough", "Mind Blowin", "Lend Me An Ear", "Portrait Of A Master Piece", "Whirlwind Pyramid", "No One Can Do It Better", and "The DOC & The Doctor" – plus "The Grand Finale", which features guest work from Ren and Ice Cube.
