Jungle Brothers - Straight Out the Jungle (1988)

Yeah, 1988 one of my favourites hip hop years. Before A Tribe Called Quest & De La Soul there was another group that was reppin the Native Tongues. The Jungle Brothers where the first of the crew to put out an album. They got some conscious lyrics with some dope production. The beats really help them out cause they rap very mellow and they aren't the best mc's, but they manage to make some good music. The title cut is a classic song it's a good representation of their sound, there are many other very good songs on the LP. The song "I'll House You" altho not very good, it started the whole wave of those hip-house songs that flooded many rap albums from 89 to 91. The album is also known for introducing Q-Tip, he's featured on 2 songs. Overall Straight Out the Jungle is a dope album, altho not perfect it's an important album in the evolution of hip hop.
