COOLIO ‎/ IT TAKES A THIEF 1994 The '94 debut album by the late Coolio, a rapper from the West Coast of L.A., known for his hit songs like "GANGSTA'S PARADISE." This album is packed with hits, including the classic "FANTASTIC VOYAGE," which samples LAKESIDE's "FANTASTIC VOYAGE" directly; "I REMEMBER," a laid-back West Coast funky number that samples AL GREEN's "TOMORROW'S DREAM" over the classic breakbeat from MELVIN BLISS's "SYNTHETIC SUBSTITUTION"; "UGLY BITCHES," which features a cute re-orchestration of DELEGATION's "OH HONEY"; and "MAMA, I'M IN LOVE (WIT A GANGSTA)," which samples ROY AYERS UBIQUITY's "MYSTIC VOYAGE" and overlays THE ISLEY BROTHERS' "COOLIN' ME OUT." The disc and case are in good condition. Instant purchase is welcome. #HipHop #HipHop #GRAP #GFUNK #RAP #GANGSTA #Gangsta #Sampling #Original Source #R&B #SOUL #DISCO #Disco #HOUSE #House #FUNK #Funk
