Gang Starr

Daily Operation: Red Vinyl 2LP

£39.99

Release Date: 11 October, 2024

On Step in the Arena, DJ Premier and Guru hit upon their mature sound, characterized by sparse, live jazz samples, Premier’s cut-up scratching, and Guru’s direct, unwavering streetwise monotone; but, with Daily Operation, the duo made their first masterpiece. From beginning to end, Gang Starr’s third full-length album cuts with the force and precision of a machete and serves as an ode to and representation of New York and hip-hop underground culture. Guru’s microphone skills are perfectly married to the best batch of tracks Premier had ever come up with.
