Easily one of the best collaborations between Eazy and Bone Thugs. I loved/still love every aspect of this record. Eazy’s verse was incredible and could still fit in with today’s music. Then, you know the Bone brothers did their fast paced thing. I do wish Eazy would’ve recorded more while he was alive. Eazy-E & [...]

Juve and Mannie made some of the best records together. I was a Cash Money kid growing up so this record has been one of my favorites since I got an edited version of this CD. Ha. If only Juvenile can make amends with Mannie and make some classics in 2011. Juvenile Ft. Mannie Fresh [...]

Some of that dope young Nas spitting on Tim Westwood. Two minutes of straight bars. I’m sure Mr. Jones has a few more of these in his career. Someone get him over to London. 13 Nas Westwood Classic Freestyle Nas – Tim Westwood Freestyle (Mediafire) | Hulkshare

I have this record without any indication of where it was spit at but I have a hunch. Since Stretch Armstrong and Bobbito’s was popular on the underground, this might have been spit on their show. That flaming underground heat. If you didn’t know, P will be home in February. 22 Mobb Deep July 94 [...]

Next to Hot 97, Wake Up Show has so many memorable freestyles. This has got to be one of the only Tech freestyles on radio ever that can be found. Although it’s short in length, Techa Nina gives that fast paced rap. I’ll have some more freestyles from the Wake Up Show as this weekend [...]

Still eons ahead of his time, Big L’s lyrics sound fresh as hell. It would’ve been crazier to see L on Roc-A-Fella. Seven minutes of bars from the two is exactly what this Slow Saturday needs. Try to decipher these insane lyrics. Don’t sleep on that LL freestyle either. 06 7 Min Freestyle By Big [...]

Back when artists did freestyles for DJs a lot more than today, DJ Kay Slay had everyone doing some for him. He even got Eminem to do one and Em doesn’t do that kind of stuff, but I digress. LL Cool J is one of the top 10 of all time for numerous reasons. So, [...]

Since Security was on some punk ass status, I wasn’t able to bring my camera in. So I found a few clips of the night. Dude is beyond phenomenal on stage. Above is “Psycho Bitch II” and “That Box”. Below is the beginning of his performance. Previously: Tech N9ne & Company – Independent Grind Tour: Mind [...]

A veteran in the game. I didn’t fully discover Killer Mike’s abilities until his solo mixtape, I Pledge Allegiance To The Grind. Out of every track, this was definitely the most powerful because of what he had to say about Fema, Martha Stewart, Oprah and more. I love records where you know the artist didn’t give a [...]

Before the Young Money days, around 2003, Gunz was ripping and shredding beats on his Apprentice series. Easily my favorite from Volume 1, Cor takes a chunk out of the hard to spit on “Notorious Thugs”. I think he went in. I know you’ll think the same. Go listen to the three volumes of The [...]
