Product Description

Gang Starr, the legendary duo consisting of DJ Premier and Guru, returns with "The Ownerz," their seventh and final studio album, released on January 1, 2003, under Virgin Records. This album is a testament to their enduring influence in the East Coast hip hop scene, delivering a powerful collection of tracks that blend classic boom bap beats with hard-hitting lyrics.

"The Ownerz" opens with the introductory track featuring guest appearances from Haneef "HG" Gari and Goo, setting the tone for the album's raw and uncompromising energy. The album dives straight into the gritty reality of street life with tracks like "Put Up Or Shut Up" and "Werdz From The Ghetto Child," showcasing Gang Starr's signature style of lyrical prowess and beat-making mastery. Songs like "Sabotage" and "Deadly Habitz" highlight the duo's ability to craft intricate rhymes over hard-hitting beats, while tracks like "Nice Girl, Wrong Place" and "Peace Of Mine" offer a glimpse into more introspective and reflective moments.

The album's standout tracks, such as "Capture (Militia Pt. 3)" and "The Ownerz," solidify Gang Starr's status as pioneers in the hip hop genre. "Capture (Militia Pt. 3)" continues the storyline from their previous albums, while "The Ownerz" serves as a powerful anthem celebrating their legacy and impact on the music industry. The album closes with "Eulogy," a poignant track that reflects on the transient nature of life and the enduring legacy of Gang Starr.

With a runtime of 57 minutes, "The Ownerz" is a concise yet impactful album that encapsulates the essence of Gang Starr's music. From the hard-hitting beats to the thought-provoking lyrics, this album is a must-listen for fans of East Coast hip hop and anyone appreciating the artistry of Gang Starr.

This 2LP set was released in 2015.

  • New Vinyl, Decent Sound

    5 out of 5 stars
    laxevrzadrs26 August 2025United States🇺🇸

    Bought it brand new in its packaging; there's some hiss and a couple of crackles that stand out during changes and quieter parts. The low end is alright but you might want to boost it a tad. I can't compare it to other versions of this album, but the sound quality isn't outstanding. Despite all that, the music is incredible. I'm using an AT-LP-120 with a red ortofan stylus…

  • Gang Starr's Stellar Finale

    4 out of 5 stars
    lapbrkuq14 October 2024United States🇺🇸

    While it might not be the absolute pinnacle of Gang Starr's impressive catalog, their final album (as of this writing) still outshines most hip-hop releases from its era. The Owners is undoubtedly a top 5 album of 2003. Guru and Premier's dynamic remained unbeatable, dare I say name a better duo... I'll be here waiting. My standout tracks include “Put Up Or Shut Up”, “Rite Where U Stand”, “Who Got Gunz”, “PLAYTAWIN”, “Zonin’” and “Skills”. The brief but stellar “Werdz From The Ghetto Child” featuring Smiley on vocals is also worth a shoutout.

  • Gang Starr's 2003 Gem

    4 out of 5 stars
    tuqxvyin2 September 2024United States🇺🇸

    While it might not be the absolute pinnacle of Gang Starr's impressive catalog, their final album (as of this writing) still outshines the majority of hip-hop releases from the same era. Without a doubt, "The Owners" is a top-tier album from 2003. Guru and Premier's dynamic duo status remains unchallenged, so go ahead and try to name a better pair—I'm all ears... My personal favorites include "Put Up Or Shut Up", "Rite Where U Stand", "Who Got Gunz", "PLAYTAWIN", "Zonin’", and don't sleep on "Skills". Also, a quick shoutout to the brief but fire "Werdz From The Ghetto Child" featuring Smiley on the vocals.
