5.0 out of 5 stars Whodini should be admired as much as RUN DMC, August 7, 2001

By	Serrell Ross - See all my reviews

Now don't missunderstand the title of this review. RUN DMC did so much for rap that it is immeasurable. But I also feel that Whodini made a huge contribution to the scene as well. Every song on this CD is a classic. Funky Beat, Growing Up and Fugitive are the standouts for me. The guitar in Fugitive was definately a huge selling point for me. As a guitar player I am drawn to songs like this. Back when this came out the concept of guitar solos in rap songs was truly in it's infant stages. With the exception of Rock Box I cannot think of another song that was done in this style. Rapping over smokin guitar tracks. Whodini material is a classic example of what rap started out as. No harsh material, no hatred, nothing offensive. Not that offensive material bothers me, but it is kinda nice to hear the roots of rap.

5.0 out of 5 stars Whodini The Kings of Classic Rap, February 22, 2001

By	"galaga99" (Nunnelly, Tn USA) - See all my reviews

I am 29 years old and a male. When I was in about eighth grade or maybe it was seventh, I can't remember anymore, there wasn't much to do in a small town. All we had were comic books, atari, and WHODINI (thank you lord). I listen to Metallica, Megadeth, new stuff, I am broad in my music taste. However, I would put Back in Black by WHODINI on any top 10 list of mine. I guarentee you that you will love it. The beats and mixes and the rapping on this cd are original and the rhymes are just like WHODINI would call them........explicit!!!!!!!!!
