Mecca And The Soul Brother from 1992 is considered by fans and critics as one of the finesthip hop albums of the early 90s. Songs like “Lots of Lovin”and”They Reminisce Over You (T.R.O.Y.)” have everything: funky basslines and lots of soul.Producer Pete Rock built his beats from obscure R&B, funk and jazz records and CL Smooth added his sometimes philosophical raps.
