I wonder if this one sounds so good on vinyl because of VMP's work, the sound quality of the original, and the fact that much of this was originally done including samples analog--or more analog than we get today. Midnight Marauders is more than just a collection of songs; it's an exploration of the group's artistic prowess and their ability to communicate relevant messages through their music. Hey Bonita, glad to meet ya For the kind of stunning newness, I must have foreseen ya Hey, being with you is a top priority Ain't no need to question the authority Chairman of the board, the chief of affections You got mine's to swing in your direction Hey, you're like a hip hop song, you know?

The album holds immense cultural and emotional importance as it marks the group's first release following the passing of their founding member, Malik "Phife Dawg" Taylor, who died in March 2016 due to complications from diabetes.
