Ultramagnetic MCs - Funk Your Head Up (17/03/1992)
Tumblr media
Funk Your Head Up es el segundo álbum de estudio del grupo del Bronx, Nueva York, Ultramagnetic MCs. Fue lanzado el hoy 17 de marzo de 1992 (hace 30 años) a través de Mercury Records y PolyGram Records. Muchas de las pistas fueron remezcladas por productores externos ante la insistencia de Mercury Records. El resultado fue un álbum que decepcionó a los fanáticos incondicionales del grupo y se vio reflejado en sus ventas. El único sencillo exitoso fue un remix de Beatminerz de "Poppa Large" que no se incluyó en el álbum original.
Trouser Press escribió: "Si el hip-hop solo se tratara de letras inteligentes y ritmos concretos, los UMC podrían haber estado en la cima del mundo. Pero al lado de la sociopolítica callejera de Ice Cube, el drama gangsta de Dr. Dre y el truco de choque de Geto Boys, Ultramagnetics comenzaba a sonar nostálgico".
En una revisión retrospectiva, The Quietus calificó el álbum como "defectuoso pero frecuentemente magnífico", y escribió que la producción "redefine el concepto de funk para la era del hip hop y le da a las rimas de Keith en particular".
RapReviews le dio una calificación de 9/10 mientras que Spin Alternative Record Guide le dio una baja calificación de 5/10.

Revisiting the Golden Era: Exploring the Legacy of 90s Hip Hop Music
Tumblr media
The 90s were a golden era for hip hop music. The decade saw the emergence of some of the most talented and influential artists in the genre, as well as a proliferation of sub-genres and styles that continue to shape the landscape of hip hop today. From the gritty, socially conscious sounds of Public Enemy and N.W.A. to the smooth, melodic grooves of A Tribe Called Quest and De La Soul, the 90s were a time of experimentation and innovation in hip hop music.
One of the defining features of 90s hip hop was its focus on social and political issues. This was the era of the Rodney King riots and the LA uprising, and many artists used their music as a platform to speak out against police brutality, racial inequality, and other forms of oppression. Public Enemy's "Fight the Power" and N.W.A.'s "F*** tha Police" were two of the most iconic protest songs of the decade, and helped to inspire a generation of activists and advocates for social justice.
At the same time, 90s hip hop also saw the rise of a more lighthearted, playful style that focused on partying and having a good time. This was the era of groups like Naughty by Nature, Digital Underground, and the Beastie Boys, who blended funky beats, catchy hooks, and irreverent humor to create a new kind of hip hop that was both entertaining and accessible.
One of the most influential groups of the 90s was A Tribe Called Quest, who helped to define the sound of jazz-infused hip hop. Their debut album, "People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm," was released in 1990 and featured a unique blend of samples, live instrumentation, and poetic lyrics. Over the course of their career, A Tribe Called Quest would go on to release several classic albums, including "The Low End Theory" and "Midnight Marauders," and would inspire a whole generation of artists with their innovative sound.
Another influential group from the 90s was Wu-Tang Clan, who emerged from Staten Island, New York in 1993 with their debut album, "Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)." The album featured a raw, gritty sound that was unlike anything else in hip hop at the time, and was an instant classic. Wu-Tang Clan would go on to release several more acclaimed albums, and would become one of the most influential and respected groups in hip hop history.
The 90s also saw the emergence of a number of talented solo artists, including Tupac Shakur, Notorious B.I.G., and Jay-Z. Tupac, who was tragically murdered in 1996, was one of the most gifted and charismatic performers of his generation, and his music continues to resonate with fans around the world. Notorious B.I.G., who was also murdered just a few months after Tupac, was a master storyteller and lyricist, and his album "Ready to Die" is widely considered one of the greatest hip hop albums of all time. Jay-Z, who started his career in the mid-90s as a member of the group Roc-A-Fella Records, would go on to become one of the biggest and most successful solo artists in hip hop history.
In addition to these more well-known artists, the 90s also saw the rise of a number of underground and alternative acts, including Mos Def, Common, and The Roots. These artists often took a more experimental approach to hip hop, blending elements of jazz, funk, soul, and rock to create a sound that was both unique and challenging.

Missed the @kooldjherc auction in New York? Never fear we have one of the iconic Turntables, the Technics SL-1100 with original tonearm. A rarity! Noted as one of the turntables that helped invent HipHop, Herc used these in his sound-system for their ‘portability?!’ quality of sound and robustness. The granddaddy of the later ubiquitous 1200/1210 series that still reign over sound-system, hiphop and club culture. #koolherc #kooldjherc #herc #herculords #hiphop #hiphopculture #turntable #turntablism #hiphophistory #technics #technicssl1100 #dj #birthofhiphop #hifi #vinyl #rare #audiogoldcrouchend #audiogold (at Audio Gold) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj28GkSNSTt/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
