Description:

By the time of their second album, 1989â??s â??Unfinished Businessâ??, EPMD were firmly cemented in the rap stratosphere. With one certified classic album under their belts, they proved they were no one-hit wonders, with the sequel possibly even better. A concise 12 tracker once again produced by the artists themselves, it saw them adhering to the â??if it ainâ??t broke, donâ??t fix itâ?? maxim, while going somewhat â??biggerâ??. In other words, guests started to appear â?? not just on the records, but in the videos â?? and marketing budgets were higher. None of which watered down their sound. In fact, this is the ultimate EPMD record: a beat thatâ??s simple but perfect, and two top-of-their-game MCâ??s going back and forth. But the appearance of NWA in the video for â??The Big Paybackâ?? hints at their reputation at the time â?? and at the cordial relations between coasts before the deadly beef that was to come. â??Paybackâ?? takes both its title and core sample from James Brownâ??s â??The Paybackâ?? from 1973, and then weaves two more JB elements with it, including the addictive stabs from â??Baby, Here I Comeâ??. Itâ??s a golden track from the golden age. -
