I’ve been considering Pete Rock’s catalog lately after listening to the ‘Monumental’ album with him and Smif-N-Wessun. Pete Rock has held the keys to the Soul Bounce production house. I’ve never heard anyone rap over Pete Rock’s drums who wasn’t respectful to the importance of the drum.
The drum was made to mimic the sound of thunder. The ancient sound of thunder is the call to open your ears and listen because a message is coming from on high.
Here’s a few choice joints produced by the Creator for you to spin thru your afternoon lunchbreak…
Heavy D – ‘Don’t Curse’
Pete Rock x CL Smooth – ‘Skinz’
Public Enemy – ‘Shut ‘Em Down’
House Of Pain – ‘Jump Around’
Run-DMC – ‘Down With The King’
Pete Rock x CL Smooth – ‘T.R.O.Y.’
