30 Years Ago, BDP dropped By All Means Necessary

[wizworld]

KRS was on top of his game at this time. He was one of the guys that made me really get into hip-hop. My older brother would have Red Alert & Mr Magic on all the time when this came out.

As a snotty nosed ashy kid, the intro for "Still No#1" where he's just shouting out the members of his crew was the hardest thing I had ever heard. Aight I'm exaggerating a little. How Chuck D. comes in on "Rebel With a Pause" was the hardest, this was 2nd.

Then MC Poet dissed him and his wife.

THEN KRIS DROPPED THE "NUMERO UNO" REMIX!!!

Wasn't until like 10-15 years later that I found out Just Ice also addressed Poet in his own fashion. I guess that's why KRS opened the remix by calling Poet soft. He didn't get crazy lyrical. He basically just said "You're soft, don't talk while I'm talking p*ssy" lol

It makes sense though, after what happened to Scott Larock BDP probably wasn't trying to play around with anyone.

Classic

Peace to KRS. RIP DJ Scott La Rock. I wasn't even alive when this album came out and I still love it. One of my favorite things about KRS is his addition of reggae vibes throughout his music. Definitely a huge reason why he's in my top 5.

I remember the first time Red Alert premiered I'm Still #1 on Kiss FM. This album, along with PE It Takes A Nation Of Millions, EPMD Strictly Business, Eric B and Rakim Follow The Leader ruled the summer of 88

only really learned to appreciate this classic late as fukk, but nowadays i cant deny its greatness

I had this on cassette at 11 years old. Wow

YEP! Recall HAPPILY unwrapping the plastic off this hoe as a kid...and writing out the lyrics to "My Philosophy" so I could learn it and recite it with him every time the song came on.

Played this joint until my boombox broke it.

And I agree that "Criminal Minded" is still the best and my favorite.....

....but "The Blueprint" is FOREVER MY shyt, though. Good GRIEF I played the piss outta that damn album, would recite both "Gimme Dat" (WOY!!) AND "The Blueprint" in the mirror EVERY DAY

FACTS. I'm probably the biggest Kris fan on this site (which is why I've been so disappointed lately with some of his stances), and nobody wanted to step to him lyrically back then.

Loved this "Still Numero Uno" remix, too....but when it comes to remixes with KRS on them, you ALWAYS gotta throw the Steady B in there:

Krs discography is near the top

This album and criminal minded are classics

Blueprint was close

And return of the boom bap is classic

If only Scott was still alive this album would have been better than Criminal Minded.

That is just my opinion.​

 

[Deflatedhoopdreams]

Love KRS

 

[Bugsmoran]

Classic

The tape either popped from playing it too much or it got stole from me because I don't remember having it very long
