Gang Starr
Album : Mass Appeal : The Best of Gang Starr
Release Date : Dec 26, 2006

Review :
Rap duo Gang Starr has gathered its greatest hits for “Mass Appeal : The Best of Gang Starr,” a deluxe CD/DVD release – including 21 tracks and 13 music videos. Before their recent split, Guru and DJ Premier recorded seven full-length albums and gained critical acclaim from hip-hop fans. “The longevity comes from being in touch, connected with the streets, being a fan,” Guru told music journalist Soren Baker, who has penned the compilation’s linear notes. “Premier and I are fans of the music. We listen to everything. We maintain that hunger, that same energy that we had when we first started in the game.” The bonus tracks are taken from soundtracks. "Tha Squeeze" is taken from Training Day and "Natural" from Spin This.

Gang Starr Mass Appeal : The Best of Gang Starr, by FatPhil [2006-12-28 16:29:30]

I know The Source don’t really review compilation or greatest hits albums but if they did then this collection of some of Gang Starr’s best would definetly deserve a 5 mic rating. Also an excellent album to bump in your car
