Discography
Ali Dee And The Forty Thieves
(Cassette, Advance, Album, Promo) EMI Records Group North America, EMI 4PRO-80688 US Genre: Hip Hop Style: Boom Bap, Hardcore Hip-Hop Released: 1992
ALI DEE Who's Da Flava (3:48) PRODUCER: Ali Dee WRITERS: A. Dee, C. Ellington, Juice PUBLISHERS: 40 Thieves/Music Corp. Of America/Madman, BMI; Loose Juice, ASCAP EMI/ERG 04663 (Go CEMA) (cassette single)
New rapper Dee breaks a sweat on this fun and danceable pop/hip-hop romp. His rapid-fire phrasing is a good contrast to the track's air-punching chants at the chorus. Crisp beats and slowly insinuating melody add up to a potential hit at several formats—but don't be surprised if urban is first to jump aboard. Also, check out "Bring It On" on the flipside.
