On the retro: Don't sleep on Black Sheep

#1
Black Sheep - A wolf in sheep's clothing


Originally released in 1991, this is the side splittingly amusing and creative debut from Native Tongues Posse members Andres "Dres" Titus and William "Mista Lawnge" McLean.

Standout joints: The Choice Is Yours (Revisited), Try Counting Sheep and Are You Mad?

Great, great album. I love the Intro, which is a parody of NWA and other gangsta rappers, "U Mean I'm Not."

Yo motherfucker
What the fuck you lookin' at
Yo, get out my motherfuckin' face right now
Yo man, trip this
I was out on the ave man
This dude wouldn't let me roll
So I pulled out my mother fuckin' nine
And I SMOKED HIS ASS
Woke up, didn't choke up
Saw my AK, it was broke up
Put it together like a jigsaw
Got my nine, and my Rambo knife off the floor
Went to the bathroom, and beat the rush
Yo, who the fuck used my toothbrush
Went to my sister's room, yo bitch, wake up
You stupid ass, dirty ass, nasty ass slut
Shot her in the leg, shot her in the thigh
Kicked her in the pussy and punched her in the eye
Slapped her in the head, stepped on the cord
Don't fuck with me bitch, word is born
Went downstairs to eat wit my folks
Ma, you broke the fuckin' egg yoke
Punch her in the chest, it got on her cheek
Then I did a sweep, knocked the bitch off her feet
Knee to the pussy, kick to the skull
AK y'all shot the bitch in the temple
Pop got mad 'cause mom got licked
I didn't give a fuck so I shot him in the dick
Hungry as fuck, said my grace
Pop kept screamin' so I shot him in the face
Ate my food, found my coat
Mailman came so I cut his mother fuckin' throat
Waitin' for the mother fuckin' school bus
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo Dres, yo Dres
Wake up man, wake up
What's wrong with you man
Yo, I had a mother fuckin' dream, man
What the fuck was the dream about Gee
I dreamed that I was hard

1992 was really a great year for hip hop. 2Pac was coming up (debut dropped late in 91), EPMD had "Crossover," Pete Rock and CL Smooth did "TROY," Black Sheep's whole album (technically 91 but they were all over in 92), Das EFX and Redman had great debuts, Rakim dropped "Know the Ledge," the Chronic dropped late in the year, and the list could go on.

Choice is Yours Revisited deserves some consideration as best song ever, although a lot of people like "TROY" as well, and deservedly so. They're both in my top 10.
