Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five merged the Afrocentric consciousness expressed by such early rappers as Gil Scott-Heron and the Last Poets with b-boy production to create "The Message," an all-time rap anthem.

Unfortunately, rather than a starting point, this album proved to be their ultimate peak. ~ Ron Wynn, Rovi
