Review

Tracks like "Ice Ice Baby," "Funky Cold Medina," and "Elevate My Mind" by Stereo MCs may not be everyone's definition of old-school rap, but this fourth volume in the series includes quite a few excellent back-in-the-day rap hits, including "P.S.K. What Does It Mean?" by Schooly D, "Paid in Full" by Eric B. & Rakim, "My Adidas" by Run-DMC, and "Freaky Tales" by Too $hort. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide
