    Why is the value so low on Jeru's vinyl? Did they over saturate the market? $5 for a 2XLP?

      DJ Premier's best produced album? Has to be top 3 at least. And Jeru came with conscious, raw lyrics and a dope voice and cadence. Classic status!

        Ain't The Devil Happy
        and My Mind Spray shocked my mind back then and still does. D.Original has really grown on me. But at the end of the day his skills are priceless! DJ Premier, Guru and Jeru. The three elements were always meant to bond and get some sounds out! The rhymes the beats are sick! And that album cover still bugs me out! But on a higher positive note. The middle 90s were so so good! ;)

          No comments on this at all ? LOL .. Jeru's first album is a true classic. D.Original, Statik, Jungle Music and Come Clean are so well versed its at the time everyone else was struggling! This does not mean the rest is just good. I am just pointing out the tracks that rocked me when I first heard this piece of art. A must have album for any Real Hip Hop fan.
