Dopest Duo Commin' Out Of Queens Bridge

Marley Marl feat. Craig G. "Droppin' Science" 12 inch **** out of 5

This is one of my favorite 12 inch records. It's from 1988 and includes the Original Version, Hip Hop Mix, and Instrumental. While the original is great, the HIP HOP MIX has a beat that will get any party moving.  The remix sample is from "Who's Making Love" by Lou Donaldson off the Blue Note label and is available on the new Blue Note compilation "Droppin" Science: Greatest Samples From The Blue Note Lab".  Which makes sense since they named the compilation off the song that sampled one of the tracks.  The cover with Craig G. and Marley Marl doing experiements is classic and is evidence of a time when hip hop was not only dope but fun at the same time.
