SHOT HOMEBOY IN HIS FUCKIN FACE...


Came across this John Leland review while perusing the Google Books Spin archive, cause Vibe is too high brow and The Source ain't digitized.  His argument that "Go See The Doctor" is anti-woman and anti-sex is palatable; his quibble with the anti-crack message of "Monster Crack" is harder to comprehend.  As far as matters of the glass pipe were concerned, it seems that Leland was an early advocate of the avant-garde need not be moral bromide. 

Did he want something more crack positive?  "Scenario" is the closest such item coming to mind, its endorsement of crack falling second or third in order of problematic content.  "PSK" rips are always welcome.  Good on the Beasties for bringing rap and hardcore as close as providence would allow without damning them to an eternity of manning the La Coka Nostra merch table.  With that said, here is a photo of Adam Yauch and Harley Flanagan.
