Kurtis Blow 's self-titled debut, released in 1980 (see1980 in music ). It includes the famous song "The Breaks ", that was often sampled later in hip-hop records, mainly for its introduction made by Blow's acappella vocal, and for the drum break, giving a wordplay dimension to the title. "Rappin' Blow, Pt. 2" was issued as a single, that had a "do-it-yourself" B-side, the instrumental version. "Takin' Care of Business" is an attempt to mix Blow's style with rock'n'roll.Track listing
