PRESSED ON MYSTIC EYE COLORED VINYL

PACKAGED IN A GATEFOLD JACKET WITH INTERVIEW BY BRIAN COLEMAN AND FOLDOUT LYRICS SHEET 

Last August marked the 50th anniversary of the birth of Hip-Hop and we continue to honor the artists and albums that had a significant impact on the culture. In partnership with Sony's CERTIFED, we are following up on our RSD reissue of BDP's Edutainment and KRS-One's Return of the Boom Bap with a long overdue reissue of KRS-One's 1995 self-titled album, KRS-One.

Two years after the release of Return of the Boom Bap, KRS-One got back in the studio and behind the boards and enlisted for additional production DJ Premier, Showbiz, Diamond D, Norty Cotto, and Big French Production. In August of '95 KRS-One dropped the Preemo-produced lead single "MC's Act Like They Don't Know" with "Represent The Real Hip-Hop" featuring Das EFX on the b-side of the 12-inch, boasting KRS-One's lyrical skills and backing up his status as one of the best live performers in the game.  KRS-One knocked it out of the park on his second solo effort with another Premier single about the current state of Hip-Hop on "Rappers R, N. Dainja" and straight-up Boom Bap rap on the Fat Joe assisted track "De Automatic".  He offers political and social commentary on "R.E.A.L.I.TY.", "Hold", and "Free Mumia" with Channel Live and continues to diss sucker MCs on "Wannabemceez" with Mad Lion. KRS-One has everything a BDP/KRS-One fan would want. 

Get On Down is proud to present this alternate variant deluxe reissue packaged in a new gatefold jacket with a new interview by Check The Technique author Brian Coleman, complete with a foldout lyrics sheet and pressed on "Mystic Eye" colored vinyl.
