Our Take

Ah, Breaking Atoms by Main Source. What can I say about this gem of an album that hasn't already been said? It's like a fine wine - it just gets better with age.

From the moment you press play, you're transported back to the golden era of hip-hop. The beats are crisp, the rhymes are slick, and the production is top-notch. It's like a sonic time machine, taking you back to the streets of New York in the 90s.

But what really sets Breaking Atoms apart is its sense of humour. The skits are hilarious, the samples are cheeky, and the lyrics are full of witty wordplay. It's like a comedy show in musical form.

And let's not forget about the guest appearances. With legends like Nas and Large Professor lending their talents to the album, it's no wonder that Breaking Atoms is considered a classic.

Overall, Main Source has created a masterpiece with Breaking Atoms. It's the kind of album that you'll want to listen to over and over again, discovering something new with each play. So grab a copy, sit back, and let the music take you on a journey. Trust me, you won't regret it.
