Biography

Boogie Down Productions were one of the formative bands of both hardcore and political hip-hop, led by rapper KRS-One. They released a seminal hardcore rap album in 1987 - Criminal Minded - which was unfortunately overshadowed when one of the key members was murdered mere weeks after it's release. DJ Scott La Rock was trying to calm a dispute between a friend and a rival gang when they opened fire… Read more in Amazon's Boogie Down Productions Store

5.0 out of 5 stars kris' most under appreciated record..., April 2, 2005
This review is from: Edutainment (Audio CD)
...well, i believe all'a his cds are under appreciated, but thats jus me.

i thought this was pure genius when it first dropped and time has done nothing to change that opinion.
i found a crate of my ol' school cassette tapes yesterday and i been playin ER'THANG... all'a yo yo's tapes, salt n pepa's stuff... wc and the maad circle, audio two's first two tapes... schooly d, 3 times dope, del... ER'BODY! ...even isis (of xclan) and harmony (from the bdp camp)...

ya know, most ol school hip hop is only good for reminiscing nowadays... the lyrics and production were good for the day, but dont always hold up under the 'modern standards'...

but edutainment's different. this remains nearly as fresh today as it first did when i got it. might be brotha parkers 3rd or 4th best album of all'a em: criminal minded, ghetto music, edutainment, then live/hardcore/worldwide...

i could put this on around family gatherings, just to educate the young'uns on what 'real' hip hop is about.

im'a have this on cd before the weekend's out...

This review is from: Edutainment (Audio CD)
Obviously not but it sounds like on some Tracks he is live.He goes into some great stories about everything,there are a number of classics.The beats are pretty cool but KRS-One is killing all songs on here.This album must be consumed purely awesome beats

5.0 out of 5 stars The finest album of BDP, November 9, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Edutainment (Audio CD)
In many ways, KRS-One is more intelligent than Public Enemy. This album is well organized and the breakbeats kick total butt I believe. KRS-One understands the true nature of America and the differences between races. However, he loves all except the wack and believes that humanity is the key to the future.
