" Originally released in 1998, "Bomb M.C." is the only full-length album by Los Angeles underground outfit The Colored Section. Comprised of Coke, Che'ski and DJ Homicide, the group crafted a distinctive sound that stood apart from the dominant trends of the era. Rooted in classic boom-bap yet enriched with off-kilter rhythms, dusty samples and understated grooves, the album balances raw energy with remarkable musical sophistication.
Much of the production was handled by Coke, formerly associated with Mad Kap, whose ear for stripped-back yet deeply effective beats gives the record its unique identity. Rather than chasing radio appeal, The Colored Section embraced originality, sharp lyricism and a laid-back West Coast sensibility that resonated strongly within the independent Hip-Hop community.
Although "Bomb M.C." remained largely overlooked upon its release, it gradually earned cult status among collectors and underground rap enthusiasts. Today, it is celebrated as one of the most underrated releases of its time - an album that captures the creativity and adventurous spirit of late-1990s independent hip-hop. " - courtesy of 90's Tapes
