The number generator spit out #141, which is Enta Da Stage by Black Moon, released in 1993. I was in college then, and loving the Hip-Hop/R&B scene that was coming out, and I somehow had missed this one, so I was sooo looking forward to hearing it for the first time. To me, it sounds very much like a product of its time. Just listening to it and you would never have to tell me in what era it was released.
First Track: Powaful Impak!
Start: A very strong start. Sounds akin to something the Fu-Schnickens would put out.
Best Attribute: Strong beats - again very reminiscent of the early 90s jazz/fusion rap, or conscious rap.
Worst Attribute: Some very trite, boring lines, like "I'm a full course meal ur a one dollar hero."
Best Song: Niguz Talk Shit - I loved the trumpet on this song, along with the entire background.
Worst Song: Buck Em Down - It sounds exactly like the title makes you think it would sound
Most Interesting Song: U Da Man - I thought that I was listening to the Lost Boyz
Most Interesting Quality: The interplay between Buckshot and Smif-n-Wessun on Black Smif-n-Wessun
Would I listen again: Probably, but only after I grew tired of other time period conscious rap
Who would I like to Re-Make/Re-Imagine this Album: A Tribe Called Quest
Rolling Stone Ranking: 141
My Current Ranking: 1 (Since it is the first!)
Projected Final Ranking: Not knowing what is coming next, maybe 160
