This is Michael Mixerr. I will review Murder City Mob - The Criminal Type. This album was released on Darkside Records, the same label Dead On Arrival was on I believe. MCM is from Flint, Michigan.
MCM comes ruff and rugged on Loud And Foul which is more of a freestyle track. Criminal Type is gangsta rap meets early hip-hop type of track. Gangsta Jackin' reminds me of Ice Cube - Jackin' 4 Beats. Gangsta Jackin' was strictly for the streets only. It's too hard for radioplay. The first side of the cassette should have been the Explicit side and the second side should have been the Clean side. MCM did release a self-titled EP after that they vanished as all the other Flint rap groups back then did. Other than that this cassette is very short as typical Flint cassette tapes were in those days.
I rate this album, The Criminal Type, 4/5****.
