was never too good with math but I know one equation that holds
true: Lakim + 45 King = DOPE! Lakim really deserves more exposure
on his first album, Pure Righteousness, and his sophomore
release, Lost Tribe of Shabazz. This gem is taken from
the second album released in 1990. To my ears this track is
one of many that epitomizes the early signature sound that DJ
Mark the 45 King cultivated during his stint at Tuff City. Lakim
laced the cut with his politically conscious lyrics which make
up the majority of his catalogue. If this don't get your soul
groovin, then you're a devil that needs smashin! His 2 LPs and
twelves are getting harder to come by these days. |
