Advantages: Good mixture of tracks, appeals to a large audience Disadvantages: Some bad track selections
...A fairly solid CD offering a diverse range of hiphop tracks from the real old skool classics from KRS-One, Sugarhill Gang and Grand Master Flash & The Furious Five to some of your more well known and newer artists such as Eminem LL Cool J and Outkast. IT has tracks that appeal to all ears and is quite inciteful into the world of hiphop both from old times and new.
However, some of the tune selections do not perhaps show the true essence of hiphop and I'm astonished that they made it onto the CD. Ja Rule and Ashanti, are they crazy! Some better tracks could have been included.
Overall a good CD for the type that it is and there's mainly quality tracks from your favourite artists and some old skool tracks that you may not have already....

Advantages: Comprehensive, diverse, good songs Disadvantages: Why was Nelly's "Hot in Herre" on this!?
...As a bboy, I pride myself on being a dignitary as well as a student of HipHop culture. This 3 CD set is comprised of some of the most influential artists and songs in the history of hiphop. Not all of the songs were Top 40 songs during their time (thus not many people in mainstream culture have heard them), but they were still VERY influential in the underground hiphop movement. Everything from Big Daddy Kane, A Tribe Called Quest, Grandmaster Flash, Melle Mel and the Furious 5, Afrika Bambaataa, NaS, N.W.A., The 45 King, O.D.B., etc. are on here. This is an EXCELLENT collection of the songs that were an integral part of spreading the influence of hiphop, changing it's style, and bringing it to its present status.
HipHop now has become too over-produced and has lost sight of its roots. No longer "dropping knowledge" to educate...
