Some albums just sound better when you are rockin headphones. For me, it's a combo of headphones AND walking through the city.


KRS-ONE - self titled. In 96 - This was my head noddin headphone go to. Pretty sure it was a tape as well.

Sunday mornings I throw on the cans and walk a few miles. This album is one of my go to joints. Such amazing music...and the rapping is nice, too.
