The Last Poets are considered the true originators of hip-hop, with their spoken-word albums preceding politically laced R&B projects and foreshadowing the work of hard-hitting hip-hop groups like Public Enemy. The album’s message and style have been influential to many artists, including N.W.A, Notorious B.I.G, and Digable Planets, who sampled “On the Subway” for their 1992 song “Rebirth of Slick (Cool Like Dat)”.
