I’ve been a fan since Cookie Puss.The only album I never really got into was the latest, Hot Sauce Commitee, which I think I shall dig out and listen to again in his honour.

They could have at least offered them as separate downloads, the same way they did for that lame-o “commentary” track.

And I still reach for “Licensed To Ill” way more than any other of their rap efforts.

Other than that it’s a brash rocker. There may stiill be a video on YouTube of it.
