CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com BDP's first album--and the only one to include the late DJ Scott La Rock--sounded harder than hell when it came out in 1987. Though the simple beat-box patterns on a few tracks sound dated, most of La Rock's tracks are bluntly effective, especially the AC/DC riff he appropriates on "Dope Beat." And KRS-One still performs most of his Criminal Minded rhymes, because his audience knows them word for word: the ultraviolent dancehall of "9mm Goes Bang," the battle cry of "South Bronx" (and its counterpart, the anti-Juice Crew screed of "The Bridge Is Over," with its little Billy Joel homage), the catalog of La Rock's condom collection on "Super-Hoe." KRS bloomed later; here, he just rocked. --Douglas Wolk Similar CDs

CD ReviewsU no what to expect HOKESE | australia | 10/02/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "this is criminal minded by bdp,what more should i say,straight up classic" RAP IS SOMETHING YOU DO HIP HOP IS SOMETHING YOU LIVE Jerry Parsons | BALTIMORE | 01/03/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "Well I did not read any reviews for this as I am sure there all good. What can I say that has not been said about this Classic album. First of all you can start with the cover which gets your attention. You have Scott La Rock and Krs-1 just stareing at you which makes you wonder wow what is this going to sound like. I have had this for close to 20 years now and it still sounds as good as it did the first day I opened the record. I dont really have a favorite on here as almost all of the songs are great but I would have to go with South Bronx as that is what reminds me of pure Hip Hop and its the birth of Hip Hop also. I can imagine in my mind like the rest of us what Krs-1 is talking about block parties and just having a good time. Then Criminal Minded which even at 37 years of age makes me me get excited about hip hop and still hold out hope for good music. They say Hip Hop is dead I dont know if it is dead more like it is stalled and waiting for a kick start."
