X-Pressions
X-Pressions is the debut studio album by New York City turntablist band the X-Ecutioners, the first of its kind, according to Rolling Stone. The album was released in 1997 for Asphodel Records and was produced by four members of the X-Ecutioners, including Rob Swift, Total Eclipse, Roc Raida, and Mista Sinista.
History
Though the album was not a commercial success, it did gain many positive reviews and today is considered to be somewhat of a classic. "Música Negra (Black Music)/Wordplay" and "Raida's Theme" (as a remix CD single) were released as singles. However, along with the album, they did not chart.
Critical reception
The New York Times noted that "the scratch-crazy debut album by the X-ecutioners ... adds an extra dose of old-school rap: boasting."
