Gang Starr

1992
Chrysalis

Arguably the peak of the one-MC-one-beatmaker crew formula, Guru and DJ Premier were the epitome of measured neo-noir cool on the mic and the decks respectively. Like documentarians who cut their work like a suspense thriller, Gang Starr were straightforward and direct yet knew just how to heighten every last detail until you’re fully immersed in a world more sophisticated than it seems on the surface.
