Rated 10/10

Still just as hype as the first time I heard it. Amazing beats and amazing raps. Definitely a classic.

Rated 8/10

Listen to this album these days sounds a little bit old, but keeping in mind the importance of public enemy for hip-hop history, it's very easy to note the importance of it.

I liked to note how much rock samples were used in these early hip-hop songs. For sure, I'm biased, but I believe that more modern hip-hop songs lost this link with rock songs.
