Hand on the Metal, Foot on the Pedal

Cant ever claim to being one of the biggest Onyx fans but they definitely have some highlights. Never been one of the easiest listening groups around, the aggressive lyrics  shouted through the speakers at us does make sitting through one of their Lps quite a challenge.

‘Bacdafucup’ in ’93 was our introduction to this sound and it was unique at the time,  and is where most of their highlights reside. This track though ‘Last Dayz’  is of their second Lp in ’95 when they had begun to tone down their style, or at least turn down the volume on the mics.

Most notable for the beat, one of my favourites, Onyx do work over this, though i must admit to occasionally wanting it to be different Mc’s on this.
