Details: CD reissue. This is EPMD at the top of their game right here. The production is slick and hardcore, and the rhymes are sharper than ever. On their third album Business As Usual, the Long Island buddies Erick Sermon and Parrish Smith perfected their formula for beat making and at the same time they sat a new standard for 90's hip-hop. EPMD kept the clubs dancing and got the street heads open. The beats are beyond dope, the rhymes are on point, and the scratches and cuts are nothing short of superior. The sick beat for 'Rampage' features some timeless lyrics by Parrish as well as L.L. Cool J. Redman gets his first appearance here on the songs 'Hardcore' and 'Brothers On My Jock'.
