Prince Paul Presents: Prince Among Thieves

MySpace

A Prince Among Thieves is the second studio album by Hip Hop artist Prince Paul. It is considered an apex in the hip hop world, and was one of the most acclaimed concept albums of its time. The concept follows the story of an aspiring young MC named Tariq, played by rapper Breezly Brewin, who needs to collect money to record a demo tape before a meeting with Wu-Tang Clan leader RZA. The story follows, as a desperate Tariq quits his low-paying job and turns to his friend True, played by rapper Big Sha, who plugs him into the world of drug dealing. The story sees the two making their way through the drug world, a police ambush, jail, and finally, a deadly showdown.

The album features cameos by Kool Keith, Big Daddy Kane, Chubb Rock, Biz Markie, De La Soul, Everlast, Sadat X, Xzibit, Kid Creole, Special Ed, Chris Rock, RZA and Buckshot.

X-Rae-
This is a benchmark in Hip Hop as Prince Paul takes the concept of storytelling to the next level. The storyline is summed up pretty well above so I won't ruin the ending and explain any further. All I'll say is that this is a truly classic album; 35 skits and tracks and every single one of them is dope and it's always going to be interesting to hear our favourite emcees and rap legends take on a different character and play the part of a different role. You'll need to break out your popcorn for this one because it really does feel as though you are listening to a movie audio. My fave joint is probably Handle Your Time as well as Macula's Theory, The Men In Blue and Weapon World. DO NOT MISS THIS! I could not move from my PC til I had heard this from start to finish!
