Customer Reviews
Quite possibly the best rap duo ever
This was back in the day when rap meant something. People were rapping for bragging rights about who was better. It wasn't East Coast vs. West Coast and there were no guns involved. The music was as serious as it is today but they knew how to use to the language to get their points across without dumbing it down with constant cussing.
It was all rhymes. And it was all good.
No rapper today could hold a candle to these guys or any of their peers.
"Go for the GOLD"!!
All the songs on this compilation are dope classics. But for the definitive, ultimate Eric B & Rakim compilation with "SUPERIOR, RE-MASTERED" sound quality, your best bet is; Eric B & Rakim "GOLD". Check it out!
People Slept On These Guys
Eric B. and Rakim put out hard-hitting rap songs during the late 80s and early 90s. They were early "hardcore" rappers, but without all of the misognist and heavy cursing that became the staple of many rappers who came after them. I don't feel that this duo received proper respect or recognition, despite of the fact that they influenced other rappers. This compliation of their greatest hits is a good representation of their talent.
