Album Notes The Beatnuts: Psycho Les, Juju. Additional personnel includes: Big Pun, Cuban Link, Method Man, Greg Nice. Surveying nearly a decade of albums, EPs, and singles (from 1993 to 2002), the untouchable Queens duo collects 12 of their hottest street anthems into the best-of compilation CLASSIC NUTS VOL. 1. The Beatnuts' finely-crafted productions have served as a direct inspiration for such rap radio favorites as J-Lo, P. Diddy, and Fat Joe while their hardcore lyrics blend gangsta violence with an irreverent party-oriented mentality. CLASSIC NUTS VOL. 1 includes such hits as "Off the Books" and "Watch Out Now," and features collaborations with Method Man, Big Pun, Triple Seis, Cuban Link, and Greg Nice.
Industry Reviews ...Deep loops have always been the first lust of these crate thugs, a sonic sensitivity that made their 'might as well' flow and toilet stoop humor seem like harmless afterthoughts. Included here are their early classics... The Wire (02/01/2002)
