BOOGIE DOWN PRODUCTIONS - GHETTO MUSIC: THE BLUEPRINT OF HIP HOP - NEW VINYL

Out of print on vinyl since 2017, Get On Down in partnership with Sony's CERTIFIED is proud to present this '89 classic fresh for 2024.

Among hip-hop fans, Boogie Down Productions' first two albums - "Criminal Minded" (1987) and "By All Means Necessary" (1988) - loom very large. And for good reason: they both captured one of the late 1980s most important and influential crews at their highest powers of lyricism and musical invention. That said, too many people sleep on BDPs third LP, "Ghetto Music".

Released in 1989, when the hip-hop world was truly beginning to explode and reach new heights of sales and exposure around the world, the album is arguably as powerful as the group's first two. Lyrically, there was never a question about KRS-One's power, and on "Ghetto Music" he continues to impress, teach, and ask important questions.
