Anyone remember Blac Monks (Rap-A-Lot)?
« on: July 18, 2005, 12:13:22 PM »
I was listening to 'Secrets of the Hidden Temple' from 1994 today - this is an amazing album!

Pure Texas funk, classic Rap-A-Lot. Sweet grooves and funky guitars - gotta love that... plus the old school drum breaks are sick and the flows are tight too. A definate solid 4 outta 5 CD...

...Just ordered their second album, 'No Mercy' for Ģ1.90 used off Amazon :) Hope it's as good..

Does anyone know anything about the group tho? I know one of them is 3-2, but that's it.

dunno if Mike Dean was with them back then but if he was he prolly produced that shit. seriously Rap-A-Lot has one of the best catalogues of all time in hip hop. prolly in the top 3 of all rap labels and thatīs whatīs up.

ey do you know if that Storm girl was the same Storm that was down with MAC(No Limit)? iīve always wondered if it is because she donīt really sound like the Storm that was down with Pac. but iīve been told that itīs the same person.
