PRESSED ON CHERRY BOMB SPLASH COLORED VINYL
PACKAGED IN A GATEFOLD JACKET WITH LINER NOTES AND A NUMBERED OBI LIMITED TO 500 COPIES
In listing the greatest albums in hip-hop history, one title never seems to stray from the upper echelons, no matter how many years pass: Boogie Down Productions’ undisputed classic from 1987, Criminal Minded. Released amidst a battle between BDP and MC Shan that would redefine the New York rap landscape as it was then known, the album, which features the songs “South Bronx,” “Criminal Minded” and “The Bridge is Over,” captures the excitement, urgency and raw power that embodies hip-hop culture as we know it, with KRS-One’s aggressive yet intelligent lyricism backed by Scott La Rock’s hard-hitting, stripped-down beats. A true classic, Criminal Minded has been recognized by Vibe Magazine, The Source, and Rolling Stone as one of the most important albums of all time.
Criminal Minded has been reissued on Cherry Bomb Splash Colored Vinyl and packaged in a gatefold jacket with album liner notes by Check The Technique author Brian Coleman and a numbered OBI limited to 500 copies. The album is in stock and shipping now!
