1990 / Marley Marl Production

[@ernestoalvarez2812]

This WHOLE ALBUM was great. It never got the props it deserves. I loved this song.

[@4u2nv718]

This was my shit. Salute to my Masta Ace.

[@kyser3ify]

This album got me through the Fall of 1990 . Freshman year. This album was a huge leap in hiphop

[@erict.4210]

Fleece Johnson I think what the homie was saying is, Ace broke from the typical hardcore game and went in from a different angle. Definitely a huge leap.
