Take the greatest thing that has happened to you this year—like having your first kid or being the first in your family to graduate college or something—and times it by the upteempth degree and you get this right here. DJ Kenny Parker and the Frozen Files team over at East Village Radio released KRS-One‘s Criminal Minded practice sessions. There’s a 99.999999999878 percent chance that you’ve never heard of this recording so this is definitely well worth your 22 minutes, mostly because there’s hardly any 22-minute activity that’s of this caliber. Some of the highlights include “La Di Da Di”-styled rhymes, an early version of “The Bridge Is Over,” and just rhymes over a variety of breakbeats. You’re in the wrong if you’ve gotten this far and haven’t pressed play yet. Shoutouts to Unkut for the audio rip.
