Return of the Boom Bap is KRS-One's first official solo album, originally released in the fall of 1993. The album is pure 90's Hip-Hop filled with KRS-One's trademark conscious raps and storytelling, accompanied by boom bap beats from the likes of DJ Premier, Showbiz, and Kid Capri.
The album kicks off with a Preemo trademark intro leading into "Outta Here", a tale about coming up in the 80s with a message to emcees about staying true to their roots. Throughout the album, KRS-One tackles corrupt police, fake emcees, religion, and provides some comical relief on "I Can't Wake Up", where he dreams about being a blunt passed around by a who's who of 90s emcees and Bill Clinton!
The album was selected as one of The Source's 100 Best Rap Albums and received a four-mic rating in The Source in 1993.
