The Skills Dat Pay Da Bills

About The Skills Dat Pay Da Bills

The Skills Dat Pay da Bills was Positive K's debut album, which was released November 3, 1992. With "I Got a Man" making waves on the radio, he was doing underground compilation appearances, guest spots on other hip-hop artists' albums, and worked with emcee Big Daddy Kane on the single ("Nightshift"), which led to his album. Despite reviews calling the album more than a fluke hit, it lacked perseverance on the album charts, leading him to become a one-hit wonder. To date, the album is still beloved in the underground hip-hop community. This album is the first recorded instance of the phrase "drop it like it's hot," which appears in the songs "Ain't No Crime" and "Minnie the Moocher." more »
