Above the Cloudz is still one of my favorite beats of all time. Inspectah Decks’s verse is a banger. Definitely one of my favorite albums of that era.

25 years later, and I still listen to that Work joint constantly.

But also that Work PT. II ft Big L

So yeah. Thats the extent of my book club shit. We need Bearigator out here running it.

One of the greatest albums of all time. I think I still play 6 or 7 tracks off of this.
