  With his funky, hooky beats and confident, distinct lyrics and flow, Kurtis Blow established himself as one of rap's earliest crossover artists, a fact which at times obscures his actual talent and innovation. THE BEST OF... offers a fair sampling of the output of a man who stood as one of the first public faces of hip-hop.<br /> <br /> His two best-remembered hits are both present, of course: &quot;The Breaks&quot; stands decades later as arguably early rap's greatest participatory song, with its handclaps and chants and uncommonly groovy riff, and while &quot;Basketball&quot; inevitably dates itself both lyrically and by its light, bubblegum sound, there's sweetness in its simplicity. Blow's rhymes are generally simple but memorable, and the melodies are designed perfectly to hook the listener in. Statement songs such as &quot;Hard Times,&quot; &quot;Tough,&quot; &quot;America,&quot; and &quot;Starlife&quot; (perhaps the first rap lament on the pitfalls of stardom) drive their respective points home. A forgotten classic lurks in 1986's &quot;I'm Chillin',&quot; featuring the Transformers theme and the sparsest and baddest lyrics on offer here. Kurtis Blow was the first popular MC of hip-hop and this collection offers ample evidence why.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 01. The Breaks <br /> 02. Christmas Rappin' <br /> 03. Hard Times <br /> 04.
