Remastered from the original analog tape, this LP features the hip-hop classic InchThe BreaksInch and was the first hip-hop record to be certified Gold. InchThe BreaksInch has often been sampled later in hip-hop records, mainly for it's introduction made by Blow's a cappella vocal, and for the drum break, giving a wordplay dimension to the title. InchTakin' Care of BusinessInch is one of the first hip hop and rock 'n' roll crossover attempts. Kurtis Blow is a rapper, singer, songwriter, record/film producer, Bboy, DJ, public speaker and minister. He is the first commercially successful rapper and the first to sign with a major record tag.
