go listen to "wheels of steel" - pure unadulterated dj artistry.
no messy raps. it's the only flash disk i can listen to, the raps
of that era bug me no end. it was downhill [imho] after that -
"the message", "white lines" [whose music bed was a direct lift
of "cavern" by  liquid liquid and which became one of the first
lawsuits about djs using other artists music.]
