Title: ONE OF THE MOST SLEPT ON ALBUMS IN HIP HOP HISTORY
Product review: The Main Ingredient is one of the most slept on albums in Hip-Hop history. Too bad this record got obscured by the onslaught of records by Puffy's Bad Boy and Suge's Death Row as they started their rise to marketshare dominance in the mid 90s. Pete Rock's beats are unparallelled in its crisp, jazzy, musically layered production and CL definitely has one of the smoothest flows in the game. Its a shame CL is in the DL right now. But till this day, I'm amazed that this record still sounds tight as it did when I first heard it back in the 95. "Searchin" could have blown up in the radio while still maintaining its cred. "In the Flesh" is straight up one of the illest jazzy beats the PR ever created. Don't get me wrong, each track stands in its own and there is no filler. If you are into jazzy production, and clever lyrics from one of the greatest duo's that was overlooked, this album is the must have in your collection.
