Death Row Records. Digitally remastered and repackaged in jewel box in slipcase. Enhanced portion features the classic video Dre Day. 2001 reissue.

Straight Outta Compton wasn't quite the first gangsta rap album, but it was the first one to find a popular audience, and its sensibility virtually defined the genre from its 1988 release on. It established gangsta rap -- and, moreover, West Coast rap in general -- as a commercial force, going platinum with no airplay and crossing over with shock-hungry white teenagers. Unlike Ice-T, there's little social criticism or reflection on the gangsta lifestyle; most of the record is about raising hell -- harassing women, driving drunk, shooting it out with cops and partygoers. All of that directionless rebellion and rage produces some of the most frightening, visceral moments in all of rap, especially the amazing opening trio of songs, which threaten to dwarf everything that follows. Given the album's sheer force, the production is surprisingly spare, even a little low-budget -- mostly DJ scratches and a drum machine, plus a few sampled horn blasts and bits of funk guitar. Although they were as much a reaction against pop-friendly rap, Straight Outta Compton's insistent claims of reality ring a little hollow today, since it hardly ever depicts consequences. But despite all the romanticized invincibility, the force and detail of Ice Cube's writing makes the exaggerations resonate. Although Cube wrote some of his bandmates' raps, including nearly all of Eazy-E's, each member has a distinct delivery and character, and the energy of their individual personalities puts their generic imitators to shame. But although Straight Outta Compton has its own share of posturing, it still sounds refreshingly uncalculated because of its irreverent, gonzo sense of humor, still unfortunately rare in hardcore rap. There are several undistinguished misfires during the second half, but they aren't nearly enough to detract from the overall magnitude. It's impossible to overstate the enduring impact of Straight Outta Compton; as polarizing as its outlook may be, it remains an essential landmark, one of hip-hop's all-time greatest.

Japanese version featuring a bonus track: 'Silent Murder'

M80，在天文上是一团位在天蝎座头部，距离地球2万8000光年的球状星团，由成千上百个恒星组合而成，外部围绕的偏红色星星称为红巨星，都已经到了恒星的末年；中心位置出现的众多蓝色星星，年轻而飘忽不定，称为蓝色流浪者。
M80，在军事上是一种微小精密的炸弹，威力强大，美国海军配备的EX-171式127厘米火箭助推增程制导炮弹中就内装了72枚。
M80，在TENSION首张专辑亮过相，是个中文名字叫做宋岳庭的大男孩，「I will be with you」一曲中收录了他创作演唱的RAP。因为喜欢史恩康纳莱，而取名Shawn的他，1978年11月6日出生于台北，2002年8月9日于加州病逝在母亲的怀里。23年的生命中，历经了十年莫可奈何的漂泊波折，无尽的心事，只能透过绘画与音乐诉说。
或许，Shawn当年以M80为创作笔名时的自我期许，终其一生未能完成是个遗憾；或许，已回到那属于天蝎座M80的Shawn，正微笑着守护他的亲爱家人，一点也不乎他的故事是不是还有人记得，作品是不是还有发表机会。
然而就在Shawn过世一周年前夕，一张名之《Life's a Struggle》专辑问世了，这是母亲与弟弟、表弟们从他的遗物中整理出来，几费周章才完成的。在这张充满纪念性的专辑背后，反映的不仅仅是一个小小留学生的苦闷写照，一个天纵奇才的乖舛际遇，也意味着一个值得深思的现象，一道令人鼻酸的课题。

超越中文歌曲题材，衍生电影原声带的专辑概念！歌词大多出自于铁竹堂团员之手，强烈自我态度以及超猛观点，成为此张专辑的最大特色。
由制作人MICHAEL林迈可、JASON王威登、SCOTTIE陈恒义、VINCE张敖杰四人组合而成，首张专辑以刚柔并济为其特色，突破目前音乐归类的限制，歌曲曲风包含嘻哈、节奏蓝调等元素，是一张兼具创新以及耐听度高的专辑，另为了与目前唱片市场上团体多以数字或英文当作团名有所区别，并增加辨识度，铁代表着自我意识的刚强表态，而竹象征着柔软韧性强的音乐本质，包含着不同派别的音乐元素，两种极端却相融合的音乐概念，开创“音乐暴力美学”的创始，于是命名为铁竹堂。

随着白人饶舌乐手Eminem的大红大紫，成为新一代底特律说唱界的领军人物、万众瞩目的新偶像，似乎人们对他的一切关注都成为理所当然的了。当所有人的目光都集中在阿姆与其“恩师”Dr. Dre的那些津津乐道的关系时，他本人却把目光投向了自己成长的家乡“汽车城”——底特律以及他的那一众好友。自然，要注明一下，这里所说的一众好友都是阿姆成名之前一起摸爬滚打的挚交。按这些朋友的原话，他们是万万没想到阿姆在出名之后还能想起他的这些伙计的，更别提出唱片了。这很自然给了那些阿姆狂热的追求者们增添了一个更加喜欢他的理由——不忘本。
由Eminem所带领的D12，由成员Proof、Bizarre、Kon Artis、Swift和Kuniva组成。即使有些人用着怀疑的眼光来看待这个团体。但《Devil's Night》还是证明了D12并非一般的花瓶组合。他们用自己的特有的方式，向整个嘻哈乐坛传递了真正的底特律之音。唱片于Eminem出资，自然在其个人的Shady Records下发表，而此次阿姆不仅亲自当上了唱片制作人，并借助他的关系居然请得西岸教父Dr. Dre亲自为D12操刀其中的4首作品。对于阿姆的忠实乐迷、或者想对底特律说唱窥探一二的人来说，《Devil's Night》是不可错过的选择。

Get Rich or Die Tryin' is the debut studio album by 50 Cent. It was released February 6, 2003,by Shady Records, Aftermath Entertainment, Interscope Records and Universal Music Group.

It ranked #37 on Rolling Stone's list of best albums of the 2000s.

Ludacris is gearing up for a multi-tiered and mutli-faceted plan to introduce his newest release to his fans. There are plans to rollout consecutive new singles and videos leading up to the November 25th release of THEATER OF THE MIND, the most important album ever recorded by Disturbing Tha Peace CEO and DTP/Def Jam recording artist Ludacris.
The unprecedented schedule got underway last week (Oct. 14th) when the song "Undisputed," went up on iTunes, followed this week by the premiere of the video for "Undisputed," which co-stars boxing champion Floyd "Money" Mayweather. On October 20th, the second new single "One More Drink" co-starring T-Pain impacted radio formats, in advance of going up on iTunes. In between, on Oct. 23rd, Ludacris will perform on the annual syndicated BET's Hip Hop Awards '08 and on October 24th, Ludacris will perform on MTV's Veteran's concert live from Nokia Theater. The "One More Drink" video premiere will then take place on Election Day, Nov. 4th.
One week later (Nov. 11th, Veteran's Day) comes the third new single. The final element, a video podcast on Nov. 18th (details to be announced in the weeks ahead) sets the stage for the eagerly anticipated arrival of THEATER OF THE MIND in the physical and digital marketplace on Nov. 25th.
In between this mind-boggling schedule he has been busy continuing to build on his career as an actor. The new action film Max Payne, based on the popular video game, opened in the # 1 box office spot raking in over 18 million dollars in its weekend debut. Chris Bridges aka Ludacris stars as an internal affairs agent alongside Mark Wahlberg, Mila Kunis and Beau Bridges. Also on the movie front, after a successful limited release in NY, Toronto, LA and the UK (in which it debuted at #1 as well the 1st weekend) RocknRolla, written and directed by Guy Ritchie, will be released throughout the rest of the U.S on October 31st. Chris joins an ensemble cast including Gerard Butler, Thandie Newton, Idris Elba and Oscar nominee Tom Wilkinson for an exciting tale of the Russian mob setting up shop in London.
THEATER OF THE MIND is the long-awaited follow-up to Luda's RIAA platinum Release Therapy (released Sept. 2006), which debuted at #1 on first week sales of 309,000 copies - the same week that its first single, "Money Maker" (featuring Pharrell Williams) hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and R&B charts, Luda's first #1 hit in six years. A rare RIAA platinum single, "Money Maker" was followed at #1 by "Runaway Love" (featuring Mary J. Blige), whose video directed by Chaka Zulu/Jessy Terrero dealt with the issues facing runaway and homeless youth. Luda and Mary J. performed the song live with special guests Earth, Wind & Fire at the 49th annual Grammy Awards worldwide telecast - where Release Therapy won for Best Rap Album. "Runaway Love" went on to win Best Collaboration at the BET Awards '07.
2006 was a landmark year for Chris `Ludacris' Bridges. In addition to the success of Release Therapy - his follow-up to 2004's double-platinum The Red Light District - he also scored rave reviews for his star appearance in Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, the show's highest rated episode ever. His role in the critically acclaimed film, Crash (which opened May 2005) began to reap honors in 2006, including landing Bridges the SAG Award for Best Ensemble, the Critics Choice Awards for Best Ensemble, and the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Supporter Actor in A Motion Picture.
He teamed up again with Terrence Howard for John Singleton's critically acclaimed Sundance discovery Hustle & Flow. Ludacris also began hosting his own XM satellite radio show, Disturbing Tha Peace Presents Ludacris' Open Mic. Filming also took place in London for Fred Claus - in which "Fred Claus, Santa's bitter older brother, is forced to move to the North Pole" - starring Vince Vaughn and Paul Giamatti, with Chris cast as `the DJ Elf' with issues. After an appearance in the indie film Ball Don't Lie, he went to work on RocknRolla and Max Payne, and finished up his seventh studio album, THEATER OF THE MIND.
THEATER OF THE MIND, Release Therapy and The Red Light District follow-up 2003's double-platinum Chicken-N-Beer, the #1 Pop/#1 R&B, success that gave Ludacris his first across-the-board #1 Rap/#1 R&B/ #1 Pop crossover smash hit single with "Stand Up." Ludacris' mega-selling streak began with his debut, 2000's triple-platinum Incognegro (aka Back For the First Time, with "What's Your Fantasy" and "Southern Hospitality"); followed by 2001's triple-platinum Word Of Mouf (with "Area Codes," "Move B***h," and "Saturday (Oooh Oooh!)").

The Notorious BIG在1994年发行的第一张专辑名字就叫Ready to Die，像是暗示了Biggie三年后遭枪击身亡的悲剧。然而Ready to Die着实是这位早逝英才震撼说唱乐界的超级武器在将Biggie自己半辈子的帮派生活缩影在80年代Funk节奏中的Ready to Die，毒品、谋杀样样都真实地穿插在Biggie比帮匪说唱更黑暗的音乐笔记里，The Notorious BIG拥有将幽默感发挥在人生最黑暗一面上的功力，能以生命历练来左右创作的态度，实在难得。但是专辑中两首歌重混音后的Top 10单曲Big Poppa和One More Chance却区别于整体上深沉的专辑走向，带来了慵懒的Funk风情

AZ是90年代中期在纽约涌现的几位有思想,有文化的匪帮饶舌大将之一。他曾经与Nas合作，帮助他发表了那张旷世巨作《Illmatic》。不过AZ却从未得到过与他同辈的艺人，如Nas、Jay z那般的关注。相反，他的第一张专辑《Doe or Die》只是在评论界大受好评，在这样小小的短暂的成功之后，他的音乐生涯便堕入低谷。评论家和B-Boys都喜欢他，但他却始终隐没在Nas与Jay Z的巨大阴影之下。就说唱方面来说，他的精准巧妙饶舌以及让人印象深刻的FLOW，在纽约数不胜数的同类MC中都是独树一帜的。可惜AZ自从第一张专辑之后，一直到2000年才真正觉醒并签约MOTOWN发表新专辑。
