Man & His Music (Remixes from Around the World) is a 1987 remix album by hip hop group Boogie Down Productions honouring the memory of DJ Scott La Rock.[1] The album was re-issued on September 23, 1997.

Critical reception

Trouser Press called the album "an unessential posthumous collection of remixes and early demos, including a track by D-Nice [the performer Rock was aiding when Rock was shot]."[2] Record Collector wrote that "while always a pleasure to hear the brutally stripped-down sound which turned hip-hop upside-down when South Bronx appeared in 1986, spread over 75 minutes the reruns here sometimes threaten to compromise their impact."[1]
