Tim Dog - Penicillin On Wax

Facts The Bronx rapper Tim Dog released his 1991 debut Penicillin On Wax to a hostile audience. Ever a king of controversy, he made a million enemies with his provocative single Fuck Compton, a shameless attention ploy dissing N.W.A., DJ Quik, and America's entire Pacific Coast. Penicillin On Wax contains more of the same, as Tim trashes everybody from Kwame to Michel'le to Eddie Murphy. The lyrical insults were arguably the opening salvo in what would later become the East Coast versus West Coast hip hop conflict. There can be no doubt that Penicillin On Wax remains one of the true hardcore hip hop classics and one of many landmarks in sounds from the Bronx. Produced by probably the best hip hop producers of the early '90s, the Ultramagnetic MC's, this album contains some of the most energetic tracks you'll ever hear. Guest appearances on the mic from Kool Keith and Ced-Gee also enhance the LP. Penicillin On Wax is available on black vinyl and includes an insert.
