Roc Marciano names Michael Jackson's "Off the Wall" and Ghostface Killah's "Supreme Clientele" to his top albums list
In a recent interview with Complex, the Long Island rapper discusses his personal favorite LPs.
To kick off the list, Roc Marcy named Michael Jackson's 1979 classic Off the Wall. He recalled picking up the LP on vinyl while recording his debut Marcberg not for sampling purposes, but simply because it took him back to his childhood.
“I love this album. It reminds me of all my childhood memories," he said. "I’m trapped in the 80’s when I hear that. When I was shopping for records when I was recording Marcberg, I saw Off The Wall in the store, a clean copy on vinyl. And I knew I wasn’t gonna use it for my album, but you can’t resist buying it. Even today, if I see it in a record store and it’s a clean copy, I just buy it. Like, ‘I can’t believe this is available, still.’ To me, that’s just Mike at his best. The whole album is fire.”
