" Hardcore Hip Hop Will Never Die "
Out of all the cuts on the Dope Folks mix that I posted up awhile back, the Wizard of Rap “Escape From New York” remix is the winner for me..
Only 100 pieces were originally pressed up – so it’s understandable if you never heard the song when it initially dropped in the late 80’s…Yeah, dude sounds like Rakim in his prime, but it’s damn near impossible to front on this song if your a fellow hardcore Hip Hop enthusiast..
And the insane cuts by J-Swift make me wonder if this duo recorded anymore material around that time period….
Damn, this has been on repeat nonstop on the BATTLEFIELD….
" Scaramanga Steez : The Jabbar El E.P. "
I’m not going to mention names, but a couple dudes out there straight up bit Scaramanga’s whole shit….Not just the patterns either..
I’m talking about theft of his whole angle..
You can’t fool advanced Hip Hop listeners so knock that shit off and get your own lane together…
Anyway, Scaramanga’s “Jabbar-El E.P.” is an extremely rare release that slipped past many peoples radar..It’s so obscure that some cats are paying over a hundred dollars for the CD on Ebay…
CRAZY…
But since your a dedicated HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD reader you get a special gift today trooper..

" H.N.I.C 3 Shots "
You know times are getting crazy when Prodigy collabs with T.I., Wiz Khalifa, and Willie Taylor of Diddy’s cornball boy band, Day 26…
Regardless of the awkward features on HNIC 3, I decided to give it some burn late last night (the official release date is not until July 3rd HAHAHAH) to see what’s really good….
Here are HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD’S top picks homeboy…
“Slept On” produced by Alchemist…
“G-Up” produced by Oh No…
“Without Rhyme or Reason”
" Mayhem Lauren : Respect The Fly Shit "
95% of the time I give a project a thorough listening session before I post it up because you never know these days (YA HEARD ME)…
But I have a good feeling about this Mayhem Lauren shit, so I’m going to let it fly without scanning it first…
" Golden State Warriors, Part 5 "
Yo-
My blog has been hacked recently and I think I have pinpointed who is behind this new age weirdo shit (I SEE YOU)…
If you searched for my blog and a page pops up that says “HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD has been removed”, don’t trip…..I’m not going anywhere, just remain patient until all this fuckery gets sorted out…
Now that I got that out of the way, I gotta give big props to Kevin Beacham (5th Element) for this interview with Devastating from the FUNKYTOWN PROS…..
Quit stalling and check in..
" 4 All My Collectors "
* I had to repost a few things since they somehow vanished off of my blog…Either someone is hacking my shit or Blogger is slipping..Either way thanks for the comments for Battlefield Breaks ya’ll (all of those got lost in shuffle as well)..
Anyway, my dude out in DC (Big Matts) hipped me to a spot that is out of control when it comes to vintage collection pieces…”Otto’s Bodega” out in NYC is straight up HOLDING…
Yo MTV Raps Watches, an insane amount of Starter gear joints, Gucci Sweaters, discontinued kicks, and all types of other shit that will send you into a tailspin….
DO NOT SLEEP..
And when you head over there, tell him that the grimy dude from HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD sent you trooper..
" Milano : The Constantine Tape "
This collection of Milano firepower will help give your morning a power boost…I’m quite sure all of the BATTLEFIELD readers already know how this DITC affiliate gets down, so I don’t even have to tell you what time it is..
But if your not knowing : Hardcore Manhattan street parables is the Modus Operandi….
" Supreme Wreckage On Deck : Battlefield Breaks "
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME……HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME…
Today is my bornday so I decided to put together a nice break mix for you cats to rock (It’s a celebration motherfuckers HAHA)..
I already splashed ya’ll with raw remixes (Strictly Weapons & Remix Weaponry)..Then I hit you over the head with grimy top shotta wreck (Every Posse Get Flat), so I thought it was only right that I dig in some of my dustiest crates to provide a dangerous explosion of break beat action…
These aren’t your average “run of the mill” breaks that you have heard a million times..What I did was incorporate some of my own productions in the mix to keep things interesting and unpredictable…
Anyway, big up to everyone that scopes out the BATTLEFIELD on the regular, major shout out to the Get Biz Kidz, Planet Rockerz, Fooderz, Kendoo, Mad Miguel, State, Rashad, MF Grimm, Six Two Six Shift, Daily Diggerz, Kufu, Prize, Refa Onerz, Sha Onerz, Dave in Vancouver, Vex, Polar, Shiek, Babz in Boston, Big Danz, Vietnam California, Cold Rock The Spot, Kool Skool in London, Monz, Riff, EC, the whole motherfucking NS, the whole GFC, Super B Beat Show, Daze Roc (WST), Big Matt in DC, Beat Detective, Mad Monk, my dude Culpa Onerz for lacing the cover and the whole AYAK massive, Shyeer, Tariq, Liz, Jahmel Rockwell etc…
Turn the motherfuckin volume up a few notches and prepare for some break beat pressure….BLAM,BLAM..
" Minnesota : A Bronx Frequency Runs Through It "
The South Bronx bomber “Minnesota” caught up with Amir Said (Beat Tips), for a nice in-depth interview that revolves around the science of Hip Hop production….You would be hard-pressed to find much info regarding Minnesota on the net, so do the right thing and check in with a quickness..
“BeatTips: Right now, reflectin’ back on your career, what producer or producers had the most influence on you early on? Who took you in early on?
Minnesota: SHOWBIZ!!! From Diggin’ In The Crates. That nigga opened my ears! Back when niggas was just sampling. Showbiz was the one that told me that I was listening to the records all wrong. Like, I would sample 1,2,3,4. He taught me 3 ½, 4 ½, 2 ½; like to catch it so awkward where nobody would be able to figure out what you did. He was the first person that showed me how to chop. And I just took it to Mars. He was on the SP 1200… I can always say that I owe all of that to Showbiz from Diggin’ In The Crates.
BeatTips: So how were you choppin’ before Show put you on?
Minnesota: Musically, it was like, when I got on the machine… you know how some producers are crazy over the megabytes and the gigahertz. I don’t know about none of that shit. I’m not technical AT ALL! My setup is hilarious to producers, when they come to my house, ‘cuz my shit is hooked up to a CD player! Niggas be buggin’ like, “Yo, where’s the studio?” I’m like, ‘Fuck a studio.’ I’m always more for the feeling of the music, or more for the frequency. Niggas be having the biggest studios and THEY BE TRASH!!! It’s never the machine, it’s the nigga”…
I couldn’t have said it better myself…HAHA..
" Scratch The Surface Steez "
Just got done listening to this Wildelux remix jump off “Scratch The Surface”….
Dude is kinda nice with the storytelling skills, vocab, flows, and he also has the ability to stick to a topic throughout the duration of an entire song (rare these days)..
Be on the lookout for the Wildelux & DJ Lord Ron project in the near future…
" WHAT THE FUCK "
I’m not really sure what’s going on with Blogger ?
For some reason I do not see my last five post, including my BATTLEFIELD BREAKS mix and I’m mad as hell man…
Hopefully they fix their little glitch so I can go on with my business…If it’s not fixed in a couple hours I will re-up everything..Until then you can scroll down and you will see the icons for the “lost” post on the right hand side..
WHAT THE FUCK…
" Joint Of The Day "
It’s only eight in the morning (Vietnam, California time) and I am declaring this new scorcher by Show & AG, “Do It For” the motherfucking joint of the day…
Be on the lookout for Preloaded remixes on July 17th with seven new tracks included homepiss..
BLAM,BLAM..
