Just one year after 'Paid In Full', Eric B. & Rakim dropped another hip - hop classic, 'Follow The Leader'. This dynamic duo sticks to the winning formula of their 1988 debut. Rakim, the God MC, spits some of the sharpest and most powerful bars, like in 'Microphone Fiend', 'The R', and 'Lyrics of Fury'. The beats have a wider sound range, moving beyond the James Brown - sampled style that defined 'Paid In Full'. They're perfectly crafted for Rakim's rap style, giving each syllable room to shine. The album cover, shot by Drew Carlolan with clothing from Dapper Dan, is a masterpiece. It's a must - listen for all hip - hop lovers. This release comes as a translucent gold double vinyl pressing from Universal in 2020. Engineer Patrick Adams (P&P) contributed to this project. Reviewed by fardison pontane on 07/18.
Using this product is simple. Just place the vinyl on your turntable and let the music play. When handling the vinyl, make sure your hands are clean to avoid getting fingerprints on it. Store the vinyl in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat. Don't stack heavy objects on top of it to prevent warping. If the vinyl gets dirty, use a soft, anti - static brush to gently clean it. Enjoy the classic hip - hop sounds of Eric B. & Rakim's 'Follow The Leader'!
