Classic East Coast albums I will be bumping for the first time during my trip to New York...Mob Deep - InfamousMain Source- Breaking AtomsTribe Called Quest- Midnight Mauraders...On my first trip to New York back in 2,000, I got into Nas Illmatic album for the first time. The plane ride to New York opened my senses, that had long been dulled by the provincial perspective of rap fans in Kansas City. Suddenly tracks like "New York State Of Mind" were like revelation to me, and forever changed my personal tastes in art and music.The three albums I've mentioned above are all iconic East Coast albums. Albums I've considered getting into in the past, but the sobriety of Kansas City life has never provided me the impetus.But what better way to finally get into these classic East Coast albums then a trip to New York and a stroll through Queensbridge!The three albums I mentioned above are all cut from the same cloth as Illmatic. I've read that Mob Deep's Infamous album was heavily influenced by Illmatics plus degrees, and it could be argued that Main Source Breaking Atoms and Tribe's Midnight Mauraders are the parents of Nas Illmatic and Mob Deeps Infamous albums.The characters invovled in creating these albums are all linked by Q-Boro network reps Large Professor and Q-Tip, who played mentor to Nas and Mob Deep and released classic East Coast albums of their own.Should make for an pleasantly nostalgic yet formative listening experience for hiphop fan from the midwest.

That's crazy.

took the words straight out of my mouth...you cant really call yourself a hip hop fan if youve never bumped any of these albums, although ill give you some leeway as "you are 1996", and these were released a bit earlier

I may not have bumped those albums yet, but they will get plenty of play during my trip to New York, and it's likely that by waiting to give them their first listen during a trip to New York I will end up appreciating them more than any of you ever did. It's better for me to be able to attach it to some positive memories and a more conducive environment then I have here in KC.

It's 1996. And you are 1996. If you put aside your prejudices you would love that album. Maybe the reason you don't like Jay-Z is because you've never listened to him in New York before. Try it, it could change your entire listening experience.
