Moments Worth Listening For
The relentless, hypnotic repetition of the bassline on the title track that sets the album's patient pace.
The shocking, unfiltered profanity marathon of CussWords that challenged 1988 radio standards.
The stark, cautionary storytelling of City of Dope where the beat drops out to emphasize the bleak narrative.
