Broadway & 52nd is the second album by jazz-rap group Us3 and has a more dark, conscious mood to it than their first album.
On the album, the group continued mixing live musicians with samples and hip hop lyrics. While the album was not as well received as the debut album Hand on the Torch, it represented a more mature approach to jazz-rap. After the huge success of their first album, the president of Blue Note records allowed the trio to dig deep into Blue Note's vault and do whatever they wanted to do with its material.
The album's title comes from the street intersection in the middle of the theater district in New York City, which used to be the center of bebop in New York City.
