On my quest to add more non-hardcore/punk records to my collection I picked up this absolute hip hop classic from 1989. I‘d never listened to Three Feet High And Rising in total to be honest, but it appears on many greatest hip hop records lists, so I decided to get a copy. The artwork is pretty cool too. This could easily be a Turnstile cover as well.
I don‘t know what it is, but hip hop from the 80s and 90s was just different. This, to me, is the golden age of hip hop. But most likely, this is a me issue and I just don’t know enough about the current hip hop scene. Be that as it may, this is a great album and I recognized a lot of songs from skate videos. Usually I‘d prefer picking up an old copy on black vinyl, but this repress on yellow vinyl was not only cheaper, it also looks really cool.
