Main Source

As a founding member of revered New York hip-hop group Main Source, Large Professor put out a hip-hop classic straight out of the gate. Since then, Extra P's sound has given you Nas's "It Ain't Hard To Tell," Tribe's "Keep it Rollin'" and nearly all of Kool G Rap and DJ Polo's Wanted : Dead or Alive among others. His productions in the mid-nineties defined the term "boom bap." Which is exactly what to expect with his first LP in over three years. On Main Source, LP has enlisted legendary emcees Jeru the Damaja, Lil' Dap, Big Noyd, AZ, and Styles P to deliver a lesson in hip-hop purity. No skits. No songs based around dances. No forced collaborations sprung from the mind of an overeager and clueless A&R. Just Beats. Rhymes. And Life. -hiphopgalaxy.com
