I ain't feelin NONE of them and I'll tell you why, From a Dj's standpoint or a party person standpoint, each one of these rap traxx is aight but the mess each one up with one or two saongs that just don't go with the flow of the traxx.
Take Traxx 1, How you gonna start off with Wild thing and go to Parents just dont understand? I like the song but it's outa place. and then it goes back to it takes two.. So you get the crowd jumpin(I wouldn't do it with wild thing But that's me) and then you send to the bar or outside with that particulr cut from jazzy jeff and the prince and then you bring them back with rob base.. that's a sea-saw.. there's no true flow there..I wouldn't have put that track right there, maybe down towards the end around track 12 or 13 maybe. But like I said that's how I flow. and all of these traxx are like that so I can't get with any given one.. I'd be listening to maybe one or two tracks off of each one which would defeat the purpose of having them..

I like these collections. These were some of the first exposure I had to these types of music when I was much younger. Listening to some of them now just brings back so many memories for me.
I got my first CD player right around the time Rap Traxx 4 was released in Canada and that was one of the first discs I ever purchased. I listened to it so much I was afraid I was going to wear it out.
