At the height of his career, roughly between 1987 and 1990, KRS-One was known for his furiously political and socially conscious raps, which is the source of his nickname, \"the Teacher.\"\n--\n\"Return of the Boom Bap\" was his first solo album. He worked with producers DJ Premier, Kid Capri and Showbiz, the latter providing this track \"Sound of da Police\". \" The heavy bass sample loop and part of a guitar solo on this song were taken from Grand Funk Railroad's cover of \"Inside-Looking Out\",", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
