Top Quality - Magnum Opus

[nite627]

93 was the most diverse time in HipHop! Really impressed brotha, wasnt sure I'd find this on here

[lafuzion]

@ Ticalbuttaz: Son I remember that. Sometimes the tuning thing came off and u had to use pliers to change the channels. LMAO. But yo em was the days.

[NARCODOLLARS]

FUCK anyone that disses the shit. Who sounds better than this in 2008. Everybody cold garbage all idiots. I still lookin 4 the 44 Magnum to blow fuckin head open...if u dis this shit...oops fuckin opus ma nigguh.

[DrtyWrm]

I think he repped White Plains NY, Brand Nubians from New Rochelle and Heavy D + Pete Rock & CL Smooth from Mt Vernon, who said all the good Hip Hop came from the 5 boroughs, NY Suburbs had some joints too... lol

[mancinithedon]

Yo- this nigga was dope! I could remember taping Rap City in high school and racing home after basketball practice to catch songs like this one- good looking on the post!

[ticalbuttaz]

Fuck Rap City, I can take you back to rushing home to watch Video Music Box with Raplh McDaniels on the UHF channels (for those that don't know that was the second knob on those old school TV's !!!)

[Tabby78]

[thisonerightMFhere]

Got it, U.S. original on PMD

[ampj2]

this was my joint! I was in high school when this dropped! I miss those times. I use to go to New York every Spring Break! A Birmingham, AL. kid having big fun in the NY. That's when New York was New York! 42nd Street still had peep shows, and guilliani was NOT Mayor!! He ruined New York!!!!!!!!

[onehunnid]

dis a breathe of fresh air right here!

[nappys5TH]

Wow we used to make steps to this one!(lol)

[weirdguy112358]

Thank you for this... I just got my hands on the album (bought it). Definitely worth the purchase...

[realhiphopsucks]

this shit is wackkkkkkkk

[Astroxtl]

man ... what ever happend to this dude... man

[dageneral27]

Used to watch this on Video Music box back then.

[donwill70301]

Man...93-94 was awesome for hip hop and music in general

[zoloftboy]

I think Parrish Smith (EPMD) put him on. Loved this song... Too bad he was a one hit wonder (but it was the beat mostly)... If you didnt cop the cassette, you better have it on a radio show... Its definitely a rare joint.

[fukalotfukalot]

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!

LOVE FOR YOU STRAIGHT FROM THE CARIBBEAN!!!

I WATCHED THIS Top Quality JOINT JUST ONCE AND GOT HOOKED AND THAT WAS A LONG TIME A GO.

[wutangsword]

This was the jam back in the day, boy. When you had to be glued to your TV waiting on RAP City to start on BET. The horns are just dope in this track, I'd turn my TV all the up for this joint.

[donwill70301]

Hell yeah!! Doin ya homework on the sofa and shit....

[columbiavilla]

I still got the full length cassette of this album, only played Magnus Opus song when it was first released; still play it from time-to-time when I spark up one after a long day at work. Classic song for sure.

[krooklyn77]

[chocolatepowershovel]

I think White Plains. In the credits for this album he gives shouts out to niggaz I know in Ossining. That's where I'm From. Home of SING SING Prison. That's where I think he's from.

[realcloak]

I have been looking for this in record stores for twelve years. The beat was always rockin' in the back of my head, and I DEFINITELY had'nt seen the video since I was a Sophmore in high school in '93. Thanks fo rthe trip down memory lane, maybe I'll get lucky on ebay and find the 12" maxi single.

[coldrockdaspot]

I have the original version and remix in mp3, message me if you still need them realcloak.

[ticalbuttaz]

A hip hop classic true!!!! But damn TQ is one ugly dude!

[metrotheme]

I actually had someone ask me for this last year at this spot where I spin. The bouncer asked me for it, so the next week I brought it back for him and played it. He bugged out. That wound up being a great night overall spinning.

[OGReppinNC]

How long have you been spining records?

[JihadJoe2006]

This is true, these kinds of hiphop artist are the the ones that need the props and recognition...Big Ups too TQ

[OGReppinNC]
