| Large Professor is so involved with the history of hip-hop, it's almost impossible to separate the two. His first beat-work was for Eric B. and Rakim. As a founder of the golden age crew Main Source, he gave Nasty Nas his debut. He rapped and produced on Tribe's Midnight Marauders, and co-crafted the sound of Illmatic. Now he's back again with his third solo album, ''Professor @ Large''. He's proud to be old school but you couldn't tell based on his lyrics. He sounds hungry still. Each song is has a different style. And a lot of featured artists like Busta Rhymes to keep your head noddin. You can judge this one by its cover because the kaleidoscopic art is awesome! | |
