Professor @ Large

large professor is so involved with the history of hip hop, it's almost impossible to separate the two. his first beat-work was for eric b & rakim. as a founder of the golden age crew main source, he gave nasty nas his debut. he rapped and produced on tribe's 'midnight marauders', and co-crafted the sound of 'illmatic'. the list goes on: kool g, kane, slick, busta, common. whatever the extra-p touches seems destined to become classic and through it all, like rap itself, this queens auteur continues to push the movement forward whether lacing others or blazing his own path. his third solo album 'professor @ large' takes the prof's beloved boom-bap and reinvents it for a new school of students and practitioners alike. it features a who's who of both old and new school mc's: busta rhymes, roc marciano, action bronson, cormega, saigon, and more. lp comes with free download card.
