"Violent By Design is to me, one of the greatest Hip-Hop releases of the 90's.

"Not the most interesting and certainly not the best Richard Hawley album, still, lady's bridge, is a lovely late night record full of easy on the ear tracks. Valentine, tonight the streets are ours, and, sea calls, are all fine. Not essential, but nice enough."  Reply

"i could argue "the bliss album" as one of the best rap albums ever. Sure, it's not racially confrontational like an NWA or 2pac album, and de la soul helped mine the territory before p.m. dawn came along, but they do the philosophical, introspective thing so well on this and their debut album, th..."  [+]  Reply

"My rating reflects the 1984 edition, which i was not allowed to add here to BEA, that includes "I'm So Excited" and removes "Nightline". This isn't anything revelatory or cutting edge, just really good disco / pop / r&b."  Reply
