This is Michael Mixerr. Today I will review Dirty Cops by BHP.
This album was recorded in 1993. There are six tracks total. BHP is Black Hole Posse from Denver, Colorado.
Dirty Cops album tackles on a lot of topics about the Denver Police Department pertaining to how their dealings with the community along how Denver Police Department’s policing tactics are considerably police brutality. Sight of police brutality was commonplace in Denver.
Dirty Cops album tackles the issues of violence as well. In the 1990s, Denver was known to be a violent city at that time. You can hear the frustration in BHP's lyrics when they rap.
Violence was prevalent in the summer of 1993 in the city of Denver. By that meaning there was a riot during the Martin Luther King, Jr. celebration. The reason for this particular riot because the KKK (Ku Klux Klan) allowed to rally on the same day of the Martin Luther King, Jr. celebration. After that, civil unrest ensued. This riot event led onto the summer season of 1993 to be called “The Summer of Violence”. Along with riots, the city of Denver was experiencing a lot of violence primarily due to gang activity, police brutality on random citizens, and race relations within the community.
You can the black communities frustration in BHP's lyrics. You can hear the frustration in BHP's lyrics about racism and bigotry as BHP's raps about such serious issues. BHP understands about the black communities frustration.
Dirty Cops is a G-Funk classic and a hood classic in the city of Denver. The Dirty Cops has 6 tracks which are pure G-Funk classics! It don't get any better than this! A lot of Colorado Hip Hop and Rap such as BHP, Kut-N-Kru, Mile High Records, Mashek, Jesse James, Julox, and more are very overlooked by the music industry.
I rate this album, Dirty Cops, 5/5*****!
