“The Don’s selections cross time, space and genre and include Crucial Vinyl from Eric B. and Rakim.
Each week, as well as picking key new releases and classics from the UK, USA, Jamaica and beyond, Don highlights a cherished album from his own collection. He explains why it means so much to him and features three key tracks. This week it’s Paid in Full, released by Eric B. and Rakim in 1987.
Don says, “This record is recognised as a classic from the golden age of hip-hop. Eric B’s heavy and inventive sampling coupled with Rakim’s pioneering ‘internal rhymes’ style (basically rhyming within a sentence as opposed to just at the end) proved to be a game-changer influencing countless hip-hop artists that followed in their wake.”.”
