Fave Hieroglyphics release from the 90s'?



  










The legendary Oakland, California Hip Hop collective were founded in the early 1990's by Del Tha Funkee Homosapien and Pep Love and consisted of Souls Of Mischief (Tajai, Phesto, Opio, A-Plus), Casual, Extra Prolific (Mike G & Snupe) Pep Love & Jay-Biz (The Prose), DJ Toure and producer and manager Domino and Kwam (Del's ex manager).

 Their first official recording as the group was 1991's "Burnt" found on the B-Side of Dels "Mistadobalina"... the crew were listed as The Hyrogliphics..."Burnt" was later sampled by NYC Hip Hop group Babbletron.

 



  

















Throughout the 90's the crew released a series of classic singles (including SOM's timeless Billy Cobham sampling "93' Til Infinity") and essential albums, but which album in your opinion was the best one?*


 







 
 













*I am just including the officially released albums in this poll and not the unreleased (Casual-Meanwhile, The Prose, Extra Prolific-Masterpiece, Del-Future Development etc) or compilation albums (Heiro Oldies etc).

The CRDS Fat Tape Volume 21-1993 Underground Special









Peace C.R.D.S. readers

first of all thanks for your feedback on the Ice-T and NWA post (and previous posts) my flu is pretty much dead and done, so I appreciate the well wishes...word is born family I haven't posted a compilation in a long time, so I hope this collection of Golden Age and Underground Hip Hop joints from 1993 suffices for the lack of compilation posting.

So turn off the radio (or smash it to bits would be a better idea lol) and TV, stay away from all that "swag" and gimmicky trash and listen to what Hip Hop was all about once and still should be, raw rhymes, head nodding fat beats, rumbling bass-lines and dope samples

Enjoy and mad respect to Grimee Rappuh, aREAL,The Human Jukebox, Dat Supa Dee Jay Mark G, Renee, Kat1, Lord Monsta, Breadcrumbs, Mickey Redvenom, Airan (aka bestie haha), SPank Moss, Tobias, The Mashup, Leary, Ridge Jaggers, Art Official, Da Mules, Manky Chops fam, Sean L, Sean B.D, Lars, Rita, Andrew B, Hans No Go, Dom Nyce, Rickster, Tyshawn, Trav, Drasar M, C7, DJ Matt Nyce, Verge the T.R.O.Y. crew and all posters there and to all the real heads keeping this incredible art form and culture alive...this compilation has ill tracks not just from from New York but from the The Bay Area, Baltimore, Oakland, Chicago and Texas so make like the late, great Dilla and turn it up :D

1991-Ice-T vs NWA

While I am sitting at home recovering from the flu, I have been listening to some of my favourite albums that were released in 1991 and it is hard to believe that these two West Coast classics are now 20 years old, but that is the reality and both albums are essential in any true Hip Hop heads collection.

Both Original Gangster and Efilrofzaggin did really well in the Billboard charts back in 1991 with Efil4zaggin placing at the top spot for a number of weeks and both albums contained great production and were steeped in controversy, particularly the NWA album as it had quite a few misogynistic and violent themes running through out the album, Ice-T's album did as well but not nearly as much as NWA's album did.

So the question is...which album was the better album in your opinion?...
