Moment of Truth
A peak of boom-bap craft, Guru's calm flow over Premier's perfect beats. Tight and beloved. Their finest.

Daily Operation
A gritty, peak boom-bap record of Premier's craft. Tough and beloved. A high point.

Hard to Earn
A tougher, more combative record than its predecessor, cut in the shadow of increasing violence in hip-hop. Premier's beats turn colder and more minimal; Guru's delivery matches it. A hardened high point.
