Official Mr Bongo 7" Hip Hop ReissueCraft a record iconic enough and, no matter what you've sampled to make it, you're destined to be sampled more yourself. It helps if you've got Rakim's voice, of course. When he and Eric B went into Power Play Studios in New York in 1987 to record 'I Ain't No Joke', their next move was highly anticipated due to the critical success of the duo's first record, 'Eric B. Is President'. Rakim was already seen as a masterful MC with a distinctive slow, baritone flow and seamless access to a rich vein of words not often heard in hip-hop.People's first exposure to this track was on the landmark 'Paid in Full' album, and it was clear this had the potential to jump off as a single. The repetitive, simply scratched sample of 'Pass the Peas' by the JB's was an infectious ear worm that needed a truly strong MC to stand up to it. He did more than that - here Rakim spun timeless lyrics and lines that would go on to be sampled and referred to dozens of times down through hip-hop history. He took one of rap's great instrumentals and wrestled it to the floor.Of course, you can't have Eric B & Rakim without Eric B. The DJ gets his time to shine on the flip, and while he isn't a man renowned for his dexterity and turntablist skills, the track still knocks. Maybe it's because Eric B has already realised what many would come to work out later: If you haven't got Rakim on your record, at least scratch his vocals. This re-release comes with a brand new cover utilising some of Dan Lish's trademark artwork.

Sturdy, Stylish, and Easy to Install Floating Shelf
Color: White, Number Of Shelves: 1, Size: 35.4 inches, Color: White, Number Of Shelves: 1, Size: 35.4 inches
This floating shelf looks great and feels very sturdy once installed. It’s stable, fits securely on the wall, and holds plenty of items without issue. I measured beforehand, and it fits perfectly in the space I needed. The hardware was included, and assembly was quick and easy—I had it up in just a couple of minutes. The quality is excellent, and the clean design adds a nice touch to the room. Highly recommend!

It’s meh
Color: Natural Oak, Number Of Shelves: 1, Size: 35.4 inches
Instructions are different than what comes. It’s hard to level and because there isn’t as many mounting points as the instructions it’s more flimsy than you’d think. Still works but can take some finessing to get it to be sturdy enough depending on what you’re planning on putting on it. Looks good and like the pictures though.

Light weight but solid floating shelf
Color: Black, Number Of Shelves: 1, Size: 47.2 inches, Color: Black, Number Of Shelves: 1, Size: 47.2 inches
Having looked around at brick and mortar stores around me locally I had a really hard to find one that was long enough to fit my wall.
Glad I was able to find the Balucci floating shelf 48'. As a collector or toys and memorabilia from my travels I wanted something in my room that could hold a substantial amount of small toys and items. Installing was very easy pretty much securing the base with the hardware provided. And securing the base to the shelf itself.
I'm very happy with the quality and also the strength of the shelf. Even with a good tug it was very tight. Maybe some longer screws would be more secure but I think the ones provided were good enough.

Solid Floating Shelves 🛠️🏠
Color: Black, Number Of Shelves: 4, Size: 15.7in
I have installed four sets of the black floating shelves in my office. They are made of high quality materials, featuring a sophisticated black woodgrain finish with a natural texture. Supposedly, each unit can handle up to 22 pounds, though I would not recommend testing that limit with your vintage bowling ball collection if you value your flooring. They are awesome.
The value is good for a set of two. Each shelf measures 22x7x1 (56x17x3 cm) inches, providing a decent amount of storage for books or decor. The installation was straightforward since the hardware for multiple wall types was included. They work well in the kitchen for spices or in the bedroom for personal belongings.
One tip for a secure fit: use a level during installation and make sure the bracket is flush against the wall before sliding the shelf on, or your photos might look like they are sliding off a mountain 📐
These shelves offer a clean, modern look and stay stable once mounted correctly. They are a practical choice for adding functional display space to any room 🖼️

Good looking shelves and easy install - skip the included drywall anchors
Color: Black, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 22in
I installed these shelves in a bedroom to get things off my dresser and some decor. Once mounted they look really nice. The black finish looks clean and modern and they blend in well with the room.
Installation was pretty straightforward. The metal bracket mounts to the wall first and then the shelf slides over the bracket. As long as you take your time lining things up it’s a simple project.
One thing I strongly recommend is not using the white plastic self-drilling drywall anchors that come with the kit. I’ve used that style before on other projects and they tend to strip out easily and leave larger holes in drywall. I used better anchors instead and the shelves mounted much more securely.
The rest of the hardware worked fine and once installed the shelves feel solid and hold items well.
Pros
- Clean modern look
- Easy installation
- Feels solid once mounted
- Good size for books or decor
Cons
- The small level included isn’t very accurate — use your own level
- One of the metal brackets was slightly bent out of the box but straightened out easily
Helpful tip:
Use your own level and better drywall anchors if you have them. It makes installation easier and the shelves will mount much more securely.
Final thoughts:
For the price these are nice looking floating shelves that install easily and work well for light storage and decor.
