The Skills Dat Pay Da Bills all day. I loved that album. Still do.

I know i'm in a minority but i'm a huge Positvie K fan. Always liked him.

Pos K for me although I have always been a fan of The Goats debut and often play "Wrong Pot To Piss In" at gigs...but listening to the album is a bit annoying as I always skip the skits.

TSDPDB was a dope album and I have the tape of this in storage.

Tricks of the Shade is some of the best band-backed hip-hop of all time IMO.

Easily Positive K for me. I was always disappointed that he never followed up with another album back then. Production and rhymes on Skills were impeccable and the album has aged far better than The Goats IMO.
