"kidojafam" (Lafayette, LA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Out of Business (Audio CD)

I've followed EPMD from their debut album and have never been dissapointed. This is more of that same formula that has made them legends in the field of hip-hop.

BIG MAN L (Va) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Out of Business (Audio CD)

I have to agree with A music fan from Brooklyn. This was tight. I know my music. I followed them from the beginning. From what I recall there were maybe 1 or 2 songs that stranded far left. But overall It was tight. I'm glad to see old schoolers coming back out and showin these candy like here today gone tommorrow mc's how to do it right...
