Release Date: 1982
Label: Sugar Hill

You'd expect this to be the first rap/hip-hop album on the list, and in a way you'd be right. In every other  way you'd be wrong too. There is a lot more 'singing' on this album that I'd have anticipated, although this doensn't make it any less interesting. Highlights are obviously the title song, 'It's Nasty' and the Stevie Wonder tribute, 'Dreamin'

Rating: 8/10
