i own it and it's amazing album
another great GangStarr album; i can't decide if this actually is my overall favorite. it's a bit ruffer and rawer than their previous albums and focuses on banging beats and simple but powerfull vocals. we should all be able to agree that some of the Gang's absolute finest joints is presented on this LP released in 1994 with "Speak Ya Clout" and "Mass Appeal" probably being the most valuable.

Classic album. LOL@MC Eiht's message he said on DJ Premier's answering machine on Aiight Chill skit. Eiht said geah LOL. What up Premier. This is Eiht baby. Kicking it out here in the hood in Compton, you know what i'm saying. Peeping you out on the new album. I know you in the studio dropping phat beats so get back with me on the down low. Aiight chill. Geah LOL.
one of the greatest records all time 11/10
probably one of my all time faves.
Untouchable .
Gangstarr's second best album, Daily Operation takes the title for me, incredible beats and rhymes and one of 1994's greatest albums. 9/10
Step In The Arena iz my fav all time .
one of those groundbreakin records...Primo iz just the fuckin illest , Guru is an overlooked MC at times as well
my opinion greatest hip hop group in history
Tribe then Wu
oh o ONGH
Dwyck is a classic song. I love that joint and the video is tight. I also like the album picture that shows Premier, Guru, Big Shug, Group Home, Jeru The Damaja. I like the clothes and boots they had on. My favorite Gang Starr albums is Daily Operation, Hard To Earn, Moment Of Truth. Guru kicks some serious knowledge about racism on Conspiracy song on Daily Operation album.
This is one of my Top 5 albums. It's the best Gang Starr album only after Step In The Arena IMO. This CD is in my CD Player often.
Props to DJ Premier for sampling Das EFX's Hard Like A Criminal song on F.A.L.A. song with Big Shug when Scoob of Das EFX said you figgedy fuck around, you lay around. Hard Like A Criminal is a hard song.
