Same. If you trim Walking’s 20 tracks down to 11 or 12 it’s a classic imo. some fantastic production on that record.

yea walking with a panther is classic imo. that song you're my heart is one of the best rap "love" songs ever right next to teenage love. at 16 when you only listen to hip hop and fall for one of the cheerleaders, there weren't many choices in '89. but even if there were that song just hits, love his cadence and flow on that cut. ll had an amazing 4 album run, not many solo artists have matched it. not many groups can do 4 in a row.

Ice Cube did the 4 album run if you include Straight Outta Compton and his first 3 solo records. Super rare tho.

'86 shortly after LTI came out. We had been listening to Raising Hell all summer and when LTI came out my friend got it and played it for me in his Camaro. We were parked behind a gas station. First thing I remember was "Coolin on a corner on a hot summer day, me and my posse and MCA...". I was like"they sound kinda like Run-DMC" and my friend said "yeah they're friends with them". And then he said "oh yeah, these guys are white" and I was like "what?....no way..."

De La first four about as good as anyone. Gang Starr, so fuckin good. I would say Tribe, but Beats has too much Consequence on it, don't like that one nearly as much as the first three.
