I think Return of the Boom Bap is really the last time I felt like KRS wasn't full of shit, which he probably was all along, and I think I bought every single they released off that album. "Outta Here" is a great song, and to this day, me and my boy Brown say that shit, usually by also mentioning five thousand dollar love seats. Who the fuck buys fancy couches? What kind of a fruit do you have to be to spend heavy wads of folding bills on a goddamned couch? And sometimes, that shit only has one arm, like you're some Roman emperor kicking it on that jank. Fuck that noise. The B-side to this is the "I'm a blunt getting smoked and I can't wake up," which is always great fun for about the first verse, then you realize all KRS is doing is pretending to be weed and talk about every rapper who talks about weed, which I guess is supposed to be clever, but really isn't that clever. Still though, "Outta Here" is a great track. My heart beats to the boom bap. Fuck all this tinny casio children's chant shit that gets put out nowadays.

That album is the only KRS-One album I own. I was never into him and really only started to dig The Bridge is Over. Maybe I am missing something, but I seriously doubt it.
First two BDP albums were great, third and fourth had their moments, and I Return of the boom Bap was like the solo album where somebody must've slapped him around and made him remember Scott La Rock or something, but yeah, he's done a ton of stupid shit over time. I actually think that Step into a World song is heinous, but people like it.
