In retrospect that ? was wack.
It was wack. I remember they had a couple of songs that were dope, including The Message, so we copped that album, along with The Wildstyle soundtrack with our Christmas money.
That Grandmaster Flash album was just like the Sugarhill Gang and Kurtis Blow albums. They were produced like R&B records and had ballads. As it turned out the record label execs didn't think anybody wanted to hear an album with rapping all the way throughout. Then Russell Simmons came around and made a fool of those record label execs.

10th grade, feb. 2000, Record Archive, when it used to be one on Mt. Hope Ave. on the south side in Rochester, NY. Every time I had $10-$12 hopped the RTS Bus, the 8 Genesse Park Blvd to Strong Memorial Hospital to the record store across the street from the hospital.
They stayed wit Cash Money Classics. Had a desk in my room with the long flat front drawer. Open it up you'd see all they cassette tapes in chronological order. From BG True Story on down. That's all I ? wit in high school was the Hot Boy$ and Big Tymer$ -

I'd rather listen to Kurtis Blow, Sugarhill Gang and Grandmaster Flash than 9 out of 10 artists nowadays. -
