Da Dirty 30 Spirit Level and songwriter Shem Tupe (Tube)Da Dirty 30 by Cru is an under appreciated album from the golden era of hip hop. Released in 1997 on Def Jam, this New York based trio delivers a gritty, jazz infused sound with 30 tracks. The production, handled by Yogi, features samples and basslines reminiscent of A Tribe Called Quest and The Beatnuts. Representing a forgotten gem of '90s hip hop, it's a must listen for boom bap fans.
