Review by Amante Reale

K Blow’s “Throughout Your Years”: A Forgotten Gem from 1980 That Still Hits Alright, let’s talk about something real—the kind of music that doesn’t scream for attention but sneaks up on you when you least expect it. K Blow (yeah, I know, not Kurtis Blow himself, more like a project vibe) dropped Throughout Your Years back in 1980. It’s raw, unfiltered hip-hop goodness straight outta the US, and honestly? It’s got this weird charm to it. Like finding an old mixtape at a garage sale and realizing it’s fire. The album’s got two tracks: Throughout Your Years Part I and Part II. No bells, no whistles—just pure storytelling over beats that feel like they were cooked up late-night in someone's basement. The producers, J.B. Moore and Robert Ford Jr., along with writers like Kurtis Blow and William Waring, clearly weren’t trying to reinvent the wheel here. But sometimes, keeping it simple works wonders. Now, if I had to pick one track that sticks with me, it’s gotta be Part I. There’s this gritty bassline running through it that just grabs you by the collar. You can tell they didn’t have some fancy studio setup—this is DIY before DIY was even cool—but man, does it slap. The lyrics are kinda reflective, almost poetic in their simplicity. It’s like listening to someone pour their soul into the mic without overthinking it. And yeah, maybe the rhymes aren’t Shakespeare-level complex, but there’s honesty there. Honesty always hits different. Then there’s Part II, which flips the script a little. It slows things down, lets the groove breathe. There’s this one moment where the beat drops out completely, leaving just the vocals hanging in the air—it gives me chills every time. Feels like the kind of track you’d play while staring out a rainy window, thinking about life choices or whatever. Not gonna lie, it’s low-key haunting in the best way possible. What makes this album wild is how bare-bones it feels. Released under "Not On Label," it’s clear nobody was expecting Throughout Your Years to blow up. Maybe that’s why it sounds so authentic. These guys weren’t chasing trends; they were just making art because they couldn’t not make it. And honestly? That’s rare. Especially now, when everything has to be polished to death before anyone takes it seriously. So yeah, Throughout Your Years might not be perfect. Hell, it might not even be remembered outside of super niche circles. But isn’t that what makes it special? It’s proof that good music doesn’t need all the glitz and glam—it just needs heart. Oh, and fun fact: rumor has it the master tapes got lost forever after release. So we’re basically working off bootlegs of bootlegs. How punk rock is that?

Interesting fact about Album

Here’s something cool: The album *Throughout Your Years* by K Blow is a hidden gem from 1980. It’s a Hip Hop record, but here’s the kicker—it wasn’t tied to any major label. It was released independently in the US under "Not On Label." The tracks, split into two parts, were crafted by a small team, including producers J.B. Moore and Robert Ford Jr., with writing credits shared by Moore, Kurtis Blow, and William Waring. Back then, independent releases like this were rare, especially in Hip Hop's early days. It shows how creators pushed boundaries even without big industry backing.

I had the 2 little latchkey boys downstairs jumping and dancing to this.
Hell, have now played it so many times that we all sing the lyrics.
Their "Na-na-na-na-na-a-na" is just the best, just a crack up and they know it so the refrain becomes more and more ridiculous with their arms flaying and feet trying to move so quick they step on themselves.
Gotta love Kurtis.
