NICE(EX)","description":"Gang Starr: The Guru Keithy E (rap vocals); DJ Premier (turntables, samples).\nAdditional personnel: Damo D-Ski (vocals).\nProducers: Gang Starr, The Guru Keithy E., Mark The 45 King.\nIncludes liner notes by Reginald Dennis.\nDigitally remastered by Carlton Batts (Frankford Wayne).\nAudio Remasterer: Carlton Batts.\nRecording information: Air Wave Studio; Such A Sound.\nPhotographer: Janette Beckman.\nGang Starr's first release, 1989's NO MORE MR. NICE GUY, is a true gem. The album offers a glimpse of genius in progress. These early DJ Premier tracks stand the test of time, though many are at a faster tempo than his typical creations. NO MORE MR. NICE GUY helped create the jazz aesthetic that would dominate East Coast hip-hop music for the next six or seven years.\n\"Jazz,\" an ode to the genre that greatly influenced DJ Premier, is a history lesson demonstrating both group members' musical knowledge. \"Manifest\" is undoubtedly the most memorable cut on the album, and the song that catapulted the duo into hip-hop's hall of fame. Also included on the set is the remix of \"Positivity\" a hard-hitting banger that heralds the Premier style adopted on the scores of important hip-hop albums with which the DJ was involved throughout the 1990s.","brand":"Gang Starr","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44563163316457,"sku":"Z5X0AU-TDK2-00","price":18.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/Gang-Starr-NO-MORE-MR-NICEEX_GwY55_d76b00ce-94ad-4a5c-bd0e-a851a55c7dde.jpg?v=1758738372","url":"https:\/\/www.vibinvinyl.com\/products\/gang-starr-no-more-mr-niceex","provider":"Vibin' Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
