About this episode
This episode celebrates the 30th anniversary of classic albums from 1996, focusing on Busta Rhymes' solo debut 'The Coming'.
It's a limited episode series celebrating the year 1996! It's the 30th anniversary of many classic albums from that year and we chose twelve to "re-review!" It had been 3 years since Busta Rhymes was kicked out of the rap group, Leaders of the New School. With the competitive environment that was 1996, Busta was charged with laying the path for his solo career. Would he sink or swim was the question but we know the answer. His solo debut, "The Coming" was prophetic. Let's talk about it on this Member Exclusive Bonus Episode!
