This 12" work is also famous as the most expensive record in hip-hop history. It is a historical masterpiece full of storytelling, with Rammellzee and K.ROB, familiar from "WILD STYLE," engaging in a microphone battle on the record. This original work, which established hip-hop as an art form bridging electro and hip-hop, only had 500 copies released at the time. It features original artwork by Jean-Michel Basquiat. Although this is a reissue from 2001, reproducing the original jacket and label, it still commands a high price.
