Midnight Marauders

Product Information

I wonder if this one sounds so good on vinyl because of VMP's work, the sound quality of the original, and the fact that much of this was originally done including samples analog--or more analog than we get today. But that's the thing, I thought Abbey Road had the monopoly on HSM, but I can't see anything connecting this release to Abbey Road Studios.

Given their legendary status within hip-hop, it's unsurprising to see a string of similarly high profile guests dotted throughout, with Busta Rhymes, Andre 3000, Kayne West, Consequence, Jack White and Elton John (presumably in sampled form) all lending a hand. It's one of those hip-hop sets that should be in the collection of any committed music head, and not just rap fans. Released in 1998, the album serves as the group's final studio effort before they temporarily disbanded.

Hey Bonita, glad to meet ya For the kind of stunning newness, I must have foreseen ya Hey, being with you is a top priority Ain't no need to question the authority Chairman of the board, the chief of affections You got mine's to swing in your direction Hey, you're like a hip hop song, you know?

The album's sound is characterized by its innovative fusion of jazz, funk, and soul samples with clever and thought-provoking rhymes. Easily recognized for their unique approach to rap music by employing jazz infused soundscapes to Afro centric rhymes, ATCQ was largely responsible for the popularity of a new genre that dominated the East Coast sound of the early 1990s.
