great tune. Hardnoise should have put the UK on the map back then. they had such a great thing going on what with Untitled and then this tune, "Mice.." but they ran into internal feuding which is such a shame. such a solid sound
I heard that TLP1 wrote this in responce to the Wood Allen track Co-Imperial which lifted his vocals,Music Of Life authorized it without the bands permission,and Hardnoise were not pleased at all
US had it's style at the time, UK had it's style at the time and this was fucking hardcore, no copying styles!! Da real shit! Uk hip hop will never again be at this level! dem days are long gone!!
@Denoneer I love this track and this kat was dope, but come on... Rakim!!!!!!! What a ridiculous statement!
Four albums of the highest quality of rhyme skills... Paid in Full, Follow the Leader, Let the Rhythm Hit'em and Don't Sweat the Technique... how many tracks on an album?? Thats at least 50 tracks of the highest quality by the man that changed the way everybody approached rhyming. His voice, style and depth of lyrics that influence every major rapper thereafter.
Your correct in what your saying about fame and brilliance, but TLP was not on Rakims level. He was got with complex patterns and delivery, but this track is never matching up to "Lyrics of Fury". Not much said was astonishing, mainly his delivery and voice made it for him.
@Denoneer Fuck yes; NOBODY was fucking with the vocals on this track WORLDWIDE when it came out, or with the beats for that matter. The vocals predict the multi-syllable cadence that would become common in NY in the latter years of the 'Golden Era', the beats predict Jungle, Drum & Bass and ... oh God ... 'Garage' ... and [vomits] ... 'Grime'. You fucking worthless rug-rat cunts why couldn't you invent something good AND FUCK DUBSTEP TOO YOU TWATS!!!
Awesome. UK hip hop was never bettered.
