That's the mastery of samplin' right there, way the cuts were used was so not obvious. Hard to figure out for a regular listener. RIP JMJ, RIP old ONYX.

Shoutout to the JMJ for discovering them. Rest In Vinyl to the Legend!

This is great. I'd love a follow up with their second album "All We Got Iz Us"

Not even rappers today can get hard or beat ONYX. But them artist need to “wakedafucup” Although, the Bob James samples never dies..

The art if sampling and creating a whole new song is incredible. Hip Hop needs to go back to it's roots.

Brutal!! Gracias VinRican!

Heavy D & The Boyz x Big Tyme Album

I would really like to see wax only episodes on KRS-ONE, LL Cool J and Big Daddy Kane.

those beats are so raw.. more low end than the low end theory

R.I.P CHYSKILLZ & JAM MASTER JAY ..

So I'm guessing the bass line on Slam was Chyskillz playing on a synth?? The production on the whole album is just perfect, grimy but also tight and crisp, and the jazz samples really smooth it out just enough. I think the album, and especially SLAM, did much to make gangsta rap more acceptable to the mainstream, much like Black Sabbath and Led Zepp did for heavy metal in the 70s. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Slam is very peculiar in that it doesn't contain a single curse word... Onyx was smart, they made the album for the streets but knew how to make a radio hit too. I remember hearing Slam in regular rotation on a local top 40 station in Abingdon VA (probably one of the least "gangsta" towns in America, haha) and this one song was one of my first times being exposed to hip hop, the spark that lit my interest in 90s hip-hop. A lot of people owe their careers to Sticky and Onyx.

Please do one on Shut Em Down by Onyx

Classic album real thug hip hip

Da Nex Niguz was a funny track 😂 😂 😂 😂

I have been shaving my head since this came out,look it up.. I AM Jack

Hmmm......could you imagine Onyx and Busta Rhymes on thr same track with M.O.P. and Red Man???

Zoomers hate Onyx because they presented very masculine, had an intense bass drum, kick and snare boom bap sound and they had actually melody infused into their music via great samples. Oh, and they hate that their flow was understandable and not mumbled.

I'm never going to find that sample in the GETDAFUCOUT joint am I? It was also used by the Artifacts in "Artifacts - Attack of New Jeruzalum".
