B.D.P.
Criminal Minded
B-Boy Records 202513 – LP re-issue on limited METALLIC SILVER vinyl as part of the Record Store Day Essentials series.

BDP’s first album–and the only one to include the late DJ Scott La Rock–sounded harder than hell when it came out in 1987. Though the simple beat-box patterns on a few tracks sound dated, most of La Rock’s tracks are bluntly effective, especially the AC/DC riff he appropriates on “Dope Beat.” And KRS-One still performs most of hisCriminal Minded rhymes, because his audience knows them word for word: the ultraviolent dancehall of “9mm Goes Bang,” the battle cry of “South Bronx” (and its counterpart, the anti-Juice Crew screed of “The Bridge Is Over,” with its little Billy Joel homage), the catalog of La Rock’s condom collection on “Super-Hoe.” KRS bloomed later; here, he just rocked.
