I Got Next

Philosopher, MC, teacher; there is only one man in rap music that fits this description, and there is not much left that he needs to prove. In just a little over 10 years, KRS-One has gone ghetto-platinum, all of his releases considered rap classics. Both with Boogie Down Productions and as a solo artist, KRS has schooled rap fans with his thoughtful, intelligent lyrics. On I GOT NEXT, KRS-One continues to take hip-hop beyond entertainment and into education. Musically, KRS still delivers the raw hip-hop he's famous for. "The MC" is head-nodding rap at it's best, with KRS' lyrical flow adding even more depth to a multidimensional track. "Step Into a World" features rowdy lyrics and a loud party-anthem beat that will rock any crowd. On the Enhanced CD, KRS-One talks about the Temple of Hip-Hop, the school that he intends to build, which will be centered around the preservation of hip-hop culture.
