The Story
The art of storytellin, nobody does it better than Slick Rick. Every song is constructed of full sentences with some of the funniest shit I had ever heard when I was 12 years old (remember when you first heard that Davey Crockett?) I love this album to death. I'm just happy to have it on reissue because my original copy was so beat up and overplayed that I gave it away. "The Ruler's Back," "Children's Story," "Mona Lisa," "Treat Her Like a Prostitute," "Hey Young World," "Lick The Balls," "Indian Girl," "The Moment I Feared," etc. Official Def Jam repress.
