The purple tape helped muthafukkaz get through weight lifting sessions in hot ass August during two a day practices, no joke. nikkaz from Miami, Columbus, Brooklyn, Atlanta, Oakland, Louisville, Chicago, Flint, was all taking requests to run that CRIMINOLOGY back, "a yo rewind that shyt for this last set":russ:
:wow:

I still have my original first pressing of "The Purple Tape" that I purchased on the release date, 20 years ago. Signed by Rae and Ghost... and the 2012 re-release of course.

The G.O.A.T Hip-Hop album without a doubt.

RZA Chef Ghost and Nas nikkaz is the prophet
I still got my 1st pressing also, sitting in my fireproof strongbox. Did not buy the re-release, no need

First time I heard this shyt Im like ':damn: what type of sorcery is this????'

From a music standpoint, easily the greatest hip hop album of all time.... Ghost locked in like he caught the holy ghost :wow:

Some MC's like Kendrick, they can teach whole seminars on.... But Ghost's verses on Cuban Linx.....

none of that theoretical shyt can even begin to explain how he did what he did :yeshrug:
