Instead, DJ Kool returned to the wild, careening atmosphere of freestyle, old-school hip-hop, anchoring the rhymes with spare scratching and elastic reggae grooves. The result was one hell of a party album, filled with terrific beats and infectious, humorous rhymes.\" https://bit.ly/35KgwOf\n\nWatch the video: https://youtu.be/qG9ZWUitFik", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
