A is fine, but c'mon... there's no way it can beat B.

Preludin has the same blind spot for hip-hop as BCB did. WBWGs still the rule even when utterly typical. At least there's some estrogen balance on this one, but it doesn't save it from the post-punk doldrums. B is inventive, powerful, and catchy. And not too canon, not that this place would recognize this particular canon if it busted a cap in our collective ass. Why is it a blind spot? Maybe folks just don't like it. Anyway. B is no good. A is pretty good until the bloke starts 'singing', but he only gets a couple of parts. I like the guitars, and the woman's voice. A

well the first one plays right into about three of my favorite fetishes but it's just not fair. I'm of the "little goes a long way" school of hip-hop appreciation but it's B in a walk. everything I like about hip-hop in a concise three minutes. hard to beat.

B has a really nice groove, but as in most cases with hiphop, the rhymes just don't grasp my attention and my mind starts to wander after a minute or two.
The unlikely named A, on the other hand, is a real discovery: the chorus lets it down a little, but the verses are simply wonderful and I like the girl's voice a lot.
Three albums out, according to Discogs... I'll definitely investigate further.
Cheers, A

Nice US Alt from the time when lots of little scenes were plopping out these modest records. As soon as it was over I forgot about it.
Gang Starr
Premier’s productions are far more preferable to the blaring Bomb Squad THO the ingredients are similar. I like the shape of Guru’s rapping. Nascent Hip Hop always seems naive.

Couldn't make a minute into A. Horrible.

A is not my cup of tea. I'd rather be attacked by a bear than listen to that again.
As for B, I wouldn't put it on but I wouldn't take it off, either.
