CRU`s "Up NoRTH b/w PRoNTo" [12 iNCH]...

Here`s a 12 inch single from CRU that was released back in 1997 I believe. "Pronto" is probably my favorite joint from them, I just love the head noddin` beat! That & the fact that this joint takes me back to the days of listening to the college radio HiP HoP shows in hopes of catchin` a new DoPe song to put on my pause~tape that I`d BuMP in my Sony Walkman......LoL, awwww the good ol` days I miss `em! Even though "Up North" is a decent track, I really only grabbed this for the "Pronto" joint. You get Radio, LP & Instrumental versions of both tracks -- 6 in total all produced by Yogi. The Radio version for "Pronto" is actually pretty enjoyable to listen to, but obviously the LP version is the real banger! Now the Radio version for "Up North" is a lil` more on the annoying side with it`s edits, not too sure why they didn`t just re~write the lyrics instead `cuz it really makes the hook annoying to listen to.....LoL, aside from that it`s a DoPe lil` single. So enjoy this promo 12 inch, excuse the mislabeling -- I have "Pronto" as the A-Side & "Up North" as the B-Side when it`s actually the other way around....LoL, told ya I DiG that track more, they should`ve made a video for it...

HeaDNoDZ` "TRaFFiCKiNG"...

I know that I haven`t been on up this blog much, bare with me I haven`t given up on this thing yet.....LoL, anyway today I have a DoPe lil` Canadian HiP HoP compilation that was put together by DJ/ producer Nick Holder back in 2006. It features 13 tracks in total by Canadian emcees King Reign, Dub Ill, Mathematik, Zaki, PeepShow, Sicsense & Citizen Kane so you know that you`re in for some sweet ol` underground goodness! I originally copped this back when it first dropped, but stupidly lent it out to someone a few years ago & never got it back. Fortunately for me one of my homies recently came across a copy & picked it up so I was able to rip a copy for myself. Now I can share this hardly mentioned Canadian Hip Hop compilation with y`all. Most of the tracks were produced by Headnodz, except for "Around (ICU)" & "Tonight" -- they were produced by Da Fishermen. So go `head & give it a listen, I`m sure you`ll DiGG it...

SPeCiaL Ed`S "NeVa Go BaCK" [CD SiNGLe]...

Decided to dust off another single from the early 1990`s to share with y`all, this one was released back in 1995 & is titled "Neva Go Back" by Special Ed. Now if you`re not familiar with Mr. "I Got It Made" Special Ed, you can click on the "back" button & just leave.....LoL, I`ll get into who he is with some later posts -- don`t you worry. For now I`m just makin` this a quick post because I`m feelin` a lil` on the lazy~side, so I`ll stick to discussin` the single that I`m sharin` with y`all...

There`s 3 tracks in total on this single; "Neva Go Back", it`s instrumental & "Just A Killa" which features Reggae superstar Bounty Killer. Both tracks were produced by the 'Hitman' Howie Tee, aside from Bounty Killer`s vocals on "Just A Killa" which were produced & recorded by King Jammy at his studio in Kingston, Jamaica. My favorite track on this single is clearly "Neva Go Back", it`s also the iLLeST of the 2... 

Still remember back when I was watching "Rap City" on Much Music, Special Ed`s "Neva Go Back" music video came on & I just couldn`t stop my headin` from noddin` to the beat....LoL, let`s just say that I really DuG it & still do to this day. The way he flows thru the track is almost like he`s spittin` it off the top of the head which meshes well with the pure HiP HoP head~noddin` beat. I believe that this single is off of Special Ed`s third album titled "Revelations" also released in 1995 on Profile Records. So go `head & check out the tunes, I`m sure you`ll enjoy `em...

Re~uPP`d LiNKs (06.24.2014)...

Alright......LoL, my homie M@RSuPiaL sent me this lil` clip of Foxy Brown performin` & bein` the huge Fox Boogie fan that I am, ya know I had to check it out! During the performance she seems to have a lil` wardrobe malfunction of sorts......LoL, I just think them tatas are too BiG for that corset or whatever that get-up`s called....LoL, gotta love how he hype~man in the above pic takes the time to sneak a peek at Foxy while she`s having them issues...

 At one point homie that`s beside her spittin` on the mic attempts to help pull up the corset, but is unsuccessful.....LoL, Foxy just continues to rock the mic tryin` to keep them BiG GuNs under wraps...

Around the 57 second mark in the clip there`s this guy on stage that notices what`s happening, but instead of lending a helpin` hand he decides to pull out his camera & snap a few pics.....LoL, gotta love it! Foxy`s a trooper though, she just kept spittin` & ended up gettin` some wardrobe~assistance from a woman....LoL, it works for a lil` bit, but eventually she has to resort to holdin` a pink designer bag up in front of her titties....LoL, you can DL the lil` clip below in mp4 file format -- enjoy...

DMX`s "GeT At Me DoG" [TaPe SaMPLeR]...

What`s good y`all? Hope Life`s been treatin` ya well. Myself? I`ve been workin` like a mad man the passed few weeks so I haven`t had enough time for the blog as of late. Fortunately for me though, I had today off so I figured that I`d take some time to post up a lil` something for y`all. So what I have to share with y`all is DMX`s "Get At Me Dog" [Tape Sampler], it was released back in 1998 & was used as promo to keep the buzz goin` for X`s debut album "It`s Dark & Hell Is Hot"...

What ya get on this Tape Sampler is basically all of the tracks (snippets unfortunately) that featured DMX from 1997-98, when X was at his hungriest straight eatin` the competition. There`s a few DJ intros/ interludes, some DMX freestyles & even a few snippets of some cuts off his "Get At Me Dog" single. There`s 20 tracks in all, Side 1 is exactly the same as Side 2 & the entire mix is just over 24 minutes long. I spent a lil` time adjusting the volume on the tape & also separated the tracks into individual mp3`s, don`t worry I`ve also included the original rips of Side 1 & 2 in their 24-plus minute mp3 format. So go `head & take a listen, check it out for ya`self...
