Whodini debuted in 1982 as one of the first commercially successful hip hop
acts to come out of New York
The group stood out because of their distinctive rap style with a twist of R&B. In
retrospect this laid the groundwork for the hugely popular 'New Jack Swing' sound
that dominated the charts in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Another milestone for
the group was their debut single "Magic's Wand". It was the first rap song to have its
own music video on MTV. A real milestone! This compilation covers the successful
period of their first albums. All these albums went platinum in the US and are still
considered an essential part of the early days of hip hop. Greatest Hits is available as
a limited edition on gold coloured vinyl.
180 gram audiophile vinyl
