There are very few albums across any genre that stand the test of time better than 93 'Til Infinity, the classic
debut record from the Hieroglyphics crew's very own Souls of Mischief. In an era where Gangsta Rap and
G-Funk dominated the West Coast Rap scene, Souls broke ground on a completely unique and thoroughly
west coast sound. While the Dr. Dres and the Snoop Doggs were garnering much of the mainstream attention,
Souls were quietly forging a charismatic, critically acclaimed, and cohesively shaped record that when catego-
rized, sounded much closer to A Tribe Called Quest than N.W.A. The sound of their debut is characteristic of
the distinct style explored by the collective, including a rhyme scheme based on internal rhyme and beats
centered around a live bass and obscure jazz and funk samples.
93 'Til Infinity was propelled into success by its title track and lead single, which reached #32 on the Billboard
Hot 100. It also featured singles "That's When Ya Lost" and "Never No More" which also reached the Hot Rap
Singles. In 1998, the album was selected as one of The Source's 100 Best Rap Albums of All Time.
Considered by many to be a text book "slept-on" classic Rap record, 93 'Til Infinity has only grown better with
age. The album simply defines the Hiero golden age with a sound that would later be fine tuned with strong
releases from MCs Del The Funkee Homosapien, Casual and Pep Love.
It takes some serious bravado to name your album 93 'Til Infinity, but certainly the goal of creating a Hip Hop
"classic" must have been on the collective minds of group members A-Plus, Tajai, Opio, and Phesto when
recording this landmark moment in Hip Hop history.
