Port Authority is the debut studio album by Canadian hip hop producer Marco Polo.
It is the first installment of the Port Authority series, followed by PA2: The Director's Cut in 2013.
[2] Timmhotep Aku of XXL praised Marco Polo's decision to feature "some of the East Coast's finest vets and samples.
"[5] Jeff Weiss of Stylus Magazine noted that he pays "homage to the latter Golden Age through scratched hooks, graveyard strings, and breakbeats redolent of worn vinyl and dust.
"[6] The album was nominated for Rap Recording of the Year at the 2008 Juno Awards.
