One of the early 00s "commercial" LP's that's at least as dope as our underground favorites – real hip hop that still keeps the party people movin', with a number of cuts produced by the Neptunes & Swizz Beats. Tracks include the instant classic "Nothin", plus "Hit Me Slime" featuring Nas, Ice-T, Nelly, & others, "God's Favorite", "Grimey", "Nahmeanuheard" (original and remix), "Mr. CEO", "Live My Life" featuring Ja Rule, "Full Mode", "Love Ya Moms" featuring Capone & others, "Head Bussa", "Wanna Be Like Him", "Black Clouds", "Banned From Another Club", "Now I Pray", "Consider This" featuring Kelis, and the bonus track "The Life Of A (Gangsta) Capone". LP, Vinyl record album

Original quad-fold copy of the Beastie's second LP, and their first one for Capitol. Like a great deal of hip hop from the late 80s/early 90s era, the production on this one is nothing short of watershed, pure Dust Brothers butter, super dense and super funky like heavy clouds of smoke from the bong! And besides it seems like there's almost no reason to mention the fab and now classic cover package, with a wrap around image from Ludlow and Rivington that's like a tribute from the Beasties to their pre-Cali transplant locale! 15 seminal tracks in all, including "Hey Ladies", "Shake Your Rump", "High Plains Drifter", "The Sound Of Science", "Looking Down The Barrel Of A Gun", "B-Boy Bouillabaisse" and "Shadrach".
