		More albums came -- each impressive, beginning with the tough Hard to Earn album in 1994 -- yet Gang Starr had already attained their summit of popularity and acclaim in the early '90s and, as a result, continually battled their own growing legacy, as fans heralded every successive album as a comeback.
		Nice Guy (1989), an ambitious debut album that sought to incorporate a jazz aesthetic into hip-hop.
		As ambitious as its aim may have been, the formative album didn't impress too many (though there were promising moments like "Manifest" and "DJ Premier in Deep Concentration"), and Gang Starr took two years to reconsider their approach.

	Jazz rap
		Though some claim the proto-hip hop, jazzy poet Gil Scott-Heron the beginning of jazz rap, the genre arose in 1988 with the release of the debut singles by Gang Starr ("Words I Manifest", which samples Charlie Parker) and Stetsasonic ("Talkin' All That Jazz", which samples Sonny Liston-Smith[?]).
		Nice Guy and their work on the soundtrack to Mo' Better Blues[?], and De La Soul's debut 3 Feet High and Rising have proven remarkably influential in the genre's development.
		A Tribe Called Quest's follow-up, The Low End Theory (1991, 1991 in music), included only a small amount of jazz, but the album was a critical success and is regarded as one of the most influential hip hop albums of the decade.

	DJ Premier - Biography - AOL Music
		Besides helming tracks for his main concern, Gang Starr, since their 1989 debut, Premier's productions appeared on many of the East Coast's most important records: Nas' Illmatic, the Notorious B.I.G. 's Ready to Die, Jay-Z's Reasonable Doubt, Jeru the Damaja's The Sun Rises in the East, and Mos Def's Black on Both Sides.
		Gang Starr's interest in melding hip-hop with jazz informed the record, and they were invited to add to the soundtrack for Spike Lee's 1990 film Mo' Better Blues.
		Their subsequent work was much more mature and unified, with a pair of instant East Coast classics (1991's Step in the Arena and 1992's Daily Operation) arriving in short order.

		While the album is a must-have just for its original contents, what puts the reissue of "Nice Guy" over the top are the extras -- remixes of "Positivity" and "Manifest" plus the duo’s 12-inch debut, "The Lesson." So there’s something here for the archivist as well as the new fan.

		Gang Starr's sixth album comes at a time where they've become the last of the '80s rappers to show that they can still compete in a post-2000 world.
		This is generally regarded as Gang Starr's final album; whether it is, or isn't, has no relevance in regards to the music.
		So overall, the latest Gang Starr album may not be as hard hitting as some of their previous, but it' still dope.

		In fact, it's quite good in its own way, but it's also safe to say that the recording is not representative of the Chrysalis-era Gang Starr that devotees would eventually come to revere.
		Approach this album on its own terms, though, and it has a lot to offer, namely its early, tentative steps into the sampling of jazz.

		Gang Starr issued Hard to Earn in March of 1994; it debuted on the Billboard RandB charts at number two.
		Since the duo had no money for the DJ equipment (two turntables and a microphone, plus a mixer and plenty of vinyl) they recreated classic hip-hop tracks with ?uestlove's drum kit backing Black Thought's rhymes.
		Unlike most hip-hop albums, the album was produced without any samples or previously recorded material.

	Gang Starr - No More Mr. Nice Guy \| 106.9 fm The BEAR
		In fact, aside from some scrupulous lyrical stances by Guru ("Manifest," "Positivity") and some of Dj Premier's hallmark brilliance behind the turntables, this Gang Starr isn't instantly recognizable as the duo who would soon become one of the most respected rap groups of the 1990s.
		Nice Guy still has a leg knee-deep in the old-school aesthetic.
		As a result, Premier's beats are quite a bit simpler and sometimes cruder than fans have come to expect (though they are still several cuts above the rest of the class), and Guru spends considerable energy talking up his own microphone skills and tearing down the next MC's (sometimes electrifying, as on "Gotch U").

	Random Record (9.4.2006) Gang Starr: Hard to Earn \| Punk Planet dot com
		A somewhat bitter-sounding album, MC Guru's sternly low-key delivery and DJ Premier's signature, sparse beats (see the 2006 Christina Aquilera single "Ain't No Other Man") are once again beautifully complimentary of one another, but the overall tone of the record is one of being burnt out.
		Gang Starr's tough tales of the streets are much more thought out than your G-Unit's of today, inspiring people to think ahead to the consequences of their actions before they act hard for little reward.
		This sense of empowerment resonates through all of Gang Starr's albums, but is worth mentioning for those who may not be as familiar.

		Nice Guy, their debut, is ironically the closest Gang Starr ever came to perfecting their style.
		This is a demonstration Gang Starr finding their sound and formulating their well respected chemistry.
		Of course this album does not go as far into the gay realm as Kid & Play and the other before mentioneds, but it still is no wear as cool as all there other later releases which are pretty much flawless.

		No more than three producers (Dr. Dre, RZA, and Prince Paul) can test DJ Premier's status as the most important trackmaster of the '90s, and no style is more distinctive.
		Aggressive and raw, a DJ Premier track was an instantly recognizable soundclash of battling loops and heavy scratching -- all of them perfectly timed -- that evoked the sound of Brooklyn better than anyone.
		Besides helming tracks for his main concern, Gang Starr, since their 1989 debut, DJ Premier's productions appeared on many of the East Coast's most important records: Nas' Illmatic, the Notorious B.I.G.'s Ready to Die, Jay-Z's Reasonable Doubt, Jeru the Damaja's The Sun Rises in the East, and Mos Def's Black on Both Sides.

		Strangely, neither album attracted much attention to the talented duo, and they never would score a real commercial hit, though they would remain hugely respected in the rap community.
		If DJ Premier was a genius as a procuder, Guru was his lyrical equal, and the duo made rap history with their mature and uncomprimising approach to hip-hop coupled with their unabashed success at bold experimentation.
		For a group who played by their own rules, Gang Starr had a habit of breaking all of them.
