London posse gangster chronicle


Gangster Chronicle was the debut album by UK hip hop group London Posse. Sparkii (Jus Badd Cru) produced six of the tracks (as well as remixing and re-recording Money Mad), Twilight Firm (DJ Devastate and Brian B) produced two tracks and the London Posse produced "Tell Me Something". It was originally released as an LP on Mango Records in 1990, but was re-released in 2001 on Wordplay, and is due to be re-released again in 2013 by Tru Thoughts Records as a double CD set. This will feature previously unreleased tracks and a selection of remixes. The album is regarded as a classic UK Hip Hop album.
