Very underrated, this was one of David Bowie's favorite albums of all time, hear the genesis of rap and hip-hop, this level of offensively overt controversial lyrics has never been as prominent as on this album, even whilst being a prototype for what to come it was already more confrontational than most rap of the 90s and even today, "nigger" must have been said a total of a thousand times on here.
