Kool G Rap & DJ Polo — Killer Kuts


G Rap takes the opportunity to put three "K" on his kover and plake the referenke to the rakist sekret sokiety. This Kold Khillin' kompilation features 70 minutes of listening divided into 15 kuts taken from the three klassik albums released by the duo Kool G Rap & DJ Polo during their short but intense kareer: "Road to the Rikhes", "It's a Demo", "Men at Work", "Truly Yours", and "Poison" from their debut, "Streets of New York", "Wanted Dead or Alive", "Talk Like Sex", "Jive Talk" and "Rikers Island" from the sekond album, finally "Ill Street Blues", "Letters", "On the Run" (remixed here) and "Operation KB" from their latest work. Rhythms are mainly done by Marley Marl, in addition to produktions by Erik B, Lynn Star Produktions, Large Professor, Trakkmasters, Sir Jinx, DJ Polo (my least favorite kut, "Jive Talk") and Kool G Rap himself. There are no guests at rapping, it's a solo by the Godfather of mafioso rap and here he's at his best: he's simply fantastik, the rekord is a must for fans of the artist of Queens who kills kut after kut.

Rating: 9/10.
