Short intro

Metropolis Gold is the only album by Brooklyn hip hop duo All City, released on November 3, 1998 by MCA Records. The album featured an all-star production lineup, including many prominent New York City producers such as DJ Premier, Pete Rock, Rockwilder, Fredro Starr, DJ Clark Kent, Hitmen member Ron Amen-Ra Lawrence, and EZ Elpee. It features guest appearances from rappers Native Souls and Onyx, which served as executive producers on the album. Album 1998 17 Songs. All City. Hip-HopRap City Origin Brooklyn, New York, USA Genres Hip-Hop Years active 1993 1998 Labels MCA Associated acts Onyx Members : J. Mega, Greg Valentine All City's debut album, Metropolis Gold, is a good example of a rap release that has the same problem as some hard bop and jazz-fusion recordings: though you admire the artists' technique, you often feel you're getting too much technique and not enough storytelling. The CD leaves no doubt that Brooklyn MCs J. Mega and Valentine collectively All City have strong rhyming technique, but technique alone isn't enough to make it a great album. Most of the time, they're simply content to show off their chops, and even though that can be exhilarating, it can also wear thin. Metropolis Gold. Released October 20, 1998.
