    KRS-One is definately my fav emcee. You just reminded me that I have to replace my The Sneak Attack album because it snapped in half. Even though I think he's getting a little preachy, he's still numero uno.


    I think his bests are The Return of the Boom Bap and I Got Next.

    Although they are two very different styles, I prefer Jurassic 5 or Black Star to KRS-One.

    But, hell, let's all forget that and just turn up the real hard beats and don't rap.

    KRS-one is one of the only rappers i'll still listen to... hes not commercialized like all these other plastic wrapped rappers out there.... his music was intelligent and didnt concern simple stupid shit like cars and money and all the other bullshit rappers put out today.... his lyrical style is insane.... i love the verse on Sound Of Da Police where he compares officers to overseers......

    Now here's a likkle truth
    Open up your eye
    While you're checking out the boom-bap, check the exercise
    Take the word "overseer," like a sample
    Repeat it very quickly in a crew for example
    Overseer
    Overseer
    Overseer
    Overseer
    Officer, Officer, Officer, Officer!
    Yeah, officer from overseer
    You need a little clarity?
    Check the similarity!
    The overseer rode around the plantation
    The officer is off patroling all the nation
    The overseer could stop you what you're doing
    The officer will pull you over just when he's pursuing
    The overseer had the right to get ill
    And if you fought back, the overseer had the right to kill
    The officer has the right to arrest
    And if you fight back they put a hole in your chest!
    (Woop!) They both ride horses
    After 400 years, I've _got_ no choices!
    The police them have a little gun
    So when I'm on the streets, I walk around with a bigger one
    (Woop-woop!) I hear it all day
    Just so they can run the light and be upon their way

    Also his old battle raps between him and all the rest of the five boroughs... he blows everyone out of the water.... no one will ever be like KRS-one
