KRS + Primo = b/w"$5000 love seat"? What part of the game is that? File next to "5 g's on Levis".

Hail yes. Dude was still on and hadn't lost his mind yet. From the title track to "Higher Level" that record is the shit.
I always thoght that lyric was so weird that it had to be rooted in some sort of personal experience... like he had been sorely tempted by a 5K loveseat on his way to the studio that day.
Or maybe he was at the house of a surely inferior fellow MC and got some loveseat jealousy.
That record has "I'm a Blunt Gettin Smoked" on it too, right? Yeah, that was a good album. I don't think I have it anymore and now I want to hear it.
I remember reading an interview around that time where he was going on about:
EVERY ALBUM KRS-ONE DOES HE BRINGS YOU A NEW STYLE! FOR EXAMPLE, "I'M A BLUNT GETTING SMOKED"--THAT IS A COMPLETELY NEW STYLE! YOU HAVE NEVER HEARD THAT STYLE BEFORE! KRS-ONE BRINGS YOU THESE NEW STYLES EVERYTIME HE COMES OUT!
"I'm Dreeeeemin'....about bein' a blunt, I'm runnin' around and I can't wake up!"
that song is so dope. Me and my bro used to debate that when he started listing all the fools taking a pull off of 'him' was he giving props to them, or is it an elaborate metaphor saying that everyone who takes a pull of him is biting his style?
"WE WILL BE HERE FOREVER! FOREVER AND EVER,AND EVER AND EVER!"
we shouldn't forget about "Hip Hop vs. Rap" - Mr. Cee was killing that track last week on the radio. It wasn't on the album, I know, but was still from that same session.
Hip Hop vs Rap might be the best song from that session.
That track is incredible.

the spinbad remix is crazy too where he puts the beat to the corresponding lines.

I got this on wax from LabbCabbin a few years back. It is pretty amazing.
