In return from the weekend, I've picked up a couple of hip hop cds. Although this is not one of them, I was inspired to post a series of the realest, sickest hip hop cds I've come across. For the first post, I think it's only fitting to put up Binary Star's Masters of the Universe. Released in 2000, my brother first showed me this cd when I must have been twelve or thirteen, and it completely opened my fragile, tender eyes up to hip hop. To this day, after having listened to hip hop constantly ever since, I can still say this cd is one of the best rap records I've ever heard. Binary Star is all about the importance of self-expression in hip hop and all against the commercialism that has become attached to it. The gritty beats are perfect in their nature bacause this cd is raw (the beat on KGB is a badass Gregorian chant). It is raw yet not flawed by it at all. I highly, highly recommend checking it out.
Binary Star is:
