1990-Sick is the fourth studio album from Spice 1, preceded by the 3 LPs Spice 1 (1992), 187 He Wrote (1993) and AmeriKKKa’s Nightmare (1994), and one EP Let It Be Known (1991, click here to download).
I have jumped from Let It Be Known to 1990-Sick because the other 3 albums are very much in-print and able to purchase legitimately, and because 1990-Sick is banging and noteworthy in its own right.
In a similar vein to 187 He Wrote, 1990-Sick has a pretty diverse production base, with the beats handled mostly by Blackjack, Chase, BOSKO, Clint “Playback” Sands, and Ant Banks.
Reppin’ the Bay to the fullest, as usual, 1990-Sick is a fine slice of straight-up gangsterism, underscored by ice cold yet still funky, top-notch production, and features the hit singles “1990-Sick (Kill ‘Em All)”, featuring none other than MC Eiht, and the heartfelt “Ain’t No Love”
Anyone who hasn’t heard Spice 1 at his finest needs to cop his first 5 releases with quickness, from Let It Be Known, to 1990-Sick.
To me, “Mind of a Sick Nigga” alone (track #3) encapsulates Spice 1 at his near best, so make sure you download this album asap. 1990-Sick remains out-of-print, and used CD copies have been known to sell for more than $70, so grab it here:
