Illegal Business?

by Mac Mall

The 1457th greatest album of all time

Illegal Business? is Mac Mall's 1993 debut rooted in West Coast hip hop and G-Funk aesthetics. The album pairs synth-driven grooves, deep bass and funk-tinged samples with Bay Area rhythms, providing a laid-back yet urgent sonic backdrop for Mac Mall's direct, street-oriented storytelling and youthful delivery. It helped introduce his voice within early 1990s Northern California hip hop and exemplifies a regional mix of melodic funk production and narrative lyricism.
