Bahamadia – Kollage 2LP
Dreamy Rhodes-filled samples and crunchy boom bap drum beats meet hypnotic swirling lyrical art with elite production from Gang Starr’s Guru & DJ Premier, Da Beatminerz, The Roots, Ski Beats and N.O. Joe.
Bahamadia’s 1996 debut album Kollage is rightly regarded as one of the greatest rap albums of the 1990s. For the first time ever, Be With present the definitive double LP version of this eternal hip-hop classic, including the legendary “Path To Rhythm” which never appeared on the original LP or on vinyl, anywhere.
An indelible VIBE from start-to-finish, Kollage presents Bahamadia’s swirling rhymes delivered with an irresistibly butter flow and razor-sharp assuredness over a steady slew of smoothed-out, jazzed-up, blunted beats. Achingly cool and effortlessly funky throughout, it’s an absolute must for true 90s hip-hop fanatics.
