Notes

From the own's label:

Hip Hop did not develop in a vacuum- it´s roots can be traced back to the earliest Afro-American music, and the folks who were influenced by these sounds along the way. This LP compiles some of the great recordings that showcase the spoken word and street culture put forth from the 1920´s through the 1960´s that would go on to influence the entire rap music genre. The themes will be familiar- religion, politics, Black experience, badass gangsta rap, speed, sex, drugs and rock n´ roll.
Let´s listen to the lessons that the hipsters of the past taught the rappers of today.

Fantastic and thoughtful presentation of some hard-to-find and under appreciated premonitions of hip hop, bridging the gap between recorded hollers, chants, blues, Sunday morning testimonials, rounds, jazz and the South Bronx. Split between themes and containing some incredibly pioneering, visionary tracks (Dirty Red's "Mother Fuyer", Big Jay McNeely's "Road House Boogie", the incomparable Butterbeans and Little Caesar, etc), this plays not as a typical cash-in compilation, but a well thought out and studied history of lyrical rap.

Quality pressing, quiet and flat, with four additional tracks on the 2xLP release. While there are certainly highlights, each track is valuable in it's own right and delivered in respectable context. Very highly recommended!
