When it comes to west coast hardcore, "Above The Law" deserve an honorable mention.....K.M.G, Total Chaos, Big Hutch, and Go Mack put the city of Pomona on the map with well though out conceptual albums.....
My favorite album from the crew is the influential "Black Mafia Life" joint that dropped in 1992......I can listen to this record front to back without hitting the skip button.....Two D.J.'s and two M.C.'s combined forces for a project that changed the landscape of west coast Hip Hop forever....
Not only did Dr.Dre use this album for inspiration on "The Chronic", so many other producers tried their hardest to emulate the sound of "BML" without coming close....
So here's a salute to you "Above The Law" for helping make 1992 a year to remember......
"Pimp Clinic".........Damn this is funky, so funky that Dr. Dre straight bit it....
"Me Vs. My Ego"
