5.0 out of 5 stars Masterful production and unmatched intensity, November 10, 2003

Every rapper now screams into the mic, sonically trashes the beats up in the studio and generally tries to scare people on the street into looking the other way when they pass them, but Onyx is the Rosetta stone of beat-you-in-your-head rap mentality. They don't sell themselves as gangstas in the way we've come to understand the term with rappers: this isn't a record about pimping or flashy jewelry or record sales. These cats are those guys on the subway looking to snatch your necklace or beat you down in the restroom at the club for selling bootlegged copies of their album at the local flea market.

The music - produced mainly by the late and great Jam Master Jay of Run D.M.C. fame - is New York cold, funky at every turn and catchy as super-virus. Lots of trunk-rattlers here, and incredibly sound production values: plenty of horns, tambourines and scary riffs. The rapping is loud, obnoxious and chanty. "Throw Your Gunz in the Air" and just about all of the interludes are about as infectious as a high school bleacher beat. Few groups since have captured the marriage of pure old-school simplicity and new school angst that Onyx had in spades. Even Onyx was unable to recapture the energy and naughty fun of this record. A classic, period, though not for the faint of sensibility.

This is onyx's debut and brought the East coast back in a time when death row ruled the airwaves it is bass heavy and the beats are bangin an the 4 bald heads mainly Sticky and Fredro reigned with there hardcore lyrics this is a classic and Throw your guns shiftee and Stick and move and the Radio friendly slam are all tight classics go cop this if you dont own it it is ill. I remember rockin to this joint when a was a freshman in high school onyx needs to make a return like this one day even though there last 2 albums were tight I want to here them on there ol crazy style again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic, June 17, 2004

Absolute classic debut by the Bal-Hedz. Beat Dr Dre's Chronic for best rap album of that year. Shows how good this is. All the songs are classics, but the best of them are Bacdafucup - best intro EVER, its sick as, Throw Ya Gunz - Sweet as hard hitting song, Atak Of Da Bal-Hedz - My favorite song, they hit it so hard, classic song, Blac Vagina Finda - maaad lyrics, Onyx Is Here - Very similar to to Bacdafucup, but a full song with different chorus, Slam - CLASSIC, Stik 'N' Move - love this song too, Shifftee - another classic, Da Nex Niguz - great lyrics another awesome song, Getdafucout - the outro, and its one of the best. Overall, if you dont have this rap album, well you must have this. Another essential piece of rap music. If you don't have this and call yourself a rap fan, then your opinion is garbage, fo' real.
