“Flyer Of The Day “
WHEW-
I’m very fortunate to be around some extremely talented cats…..Keeping my Hip Hop morale up has never been a issue for me, mainly because I’m obsessed with refining my skills, but I also have to add that my peoples are like-minded which contributes to the high frequency of my outlook and approach to this art form…
For instance, peep this piece of wreck by my ace KHUFU ONERZ for a upcoming jam for my dudes PEZO & SHA 1….Yes indeed, fresh is the word….If your anywhere near the bay area next weekend, you know the motherfucking drill…
” Special Ed Speaks “
I was summoned by the DROP A GEM ON EM dudes to start my own column on their revamped website…So be on the lookout for the “HIDDEN GEMS” section within the next couple weeks where I pull out nothing but sure shot, slept on heaters….It’s not going to interfere with my time on HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD – matter of fact I will make sure to post up every “HG” on here as well….
Anyway- the DROP A GEM ON EM podcast continues their streak of interviewing cats that have contributed heavily to this art form…BK’s finest SPECIAL ED is the latest guest, please do not snooze….
” Strictly Nonce “
The JAZZ SPASTIKS bless us with almost two hours of strictly NONCE joints on this mix (JS LIVE 011)….Doubles, blends, b-sides, remixes, unreleased gems, etc..
RIP YUSEF AFLOAT.
” Midweek Flames “
Do yourself a favor and give your full attention to this session by DIGITAL B (HEAT WAVE SOUNDSYSTEM -Xxtra Hard Mix)…..Heavy dubplate action, critical selections, explosive riddims and all types of heat on deck….DONT SLEEP.
” DJ Scratch : 45 Special Mix “
Out of the hundreds of Hip Hop shows I have attended over the years, my all time favorite was the HIT SQUAD (EPMD, Das Efx, Redman, K Solo, and DJ Scratch) tour back in the early 90’s….The house was flooded with hardrocks, gangsters and all types of other no nonsense dudes…..
The tension was so high in the room I thought some extreme violence was going to pop off at any moment – luckily the Hit Squad put on such a high energy performance the crowd had to focus on the stage instead of entertaining the thought of harming each other…..One of the illest parts of the night is when DJ Scratch got his turn to shine by himself….
After all these years Scratch has made a a huge name for himself….Here is a new 45 mix for you to catch a groove to…CHECK IN..
Running time : 50 minutes.
” Howard Lloyd : Quickie EP
I’m going to take you back to 2006 for some under the radar action with Howard Lloyd….I’m not to familiar with Lloyd, but I do know he is affiliated with the Sputnik Brown crew and has dropped a few releases over the years…
Peep this “Quickie EP” that is laced with some crunchy SP1200 chops….
TRACKLIST-
Getting Started
U Don’t Want It
Who Stole My Soul?
Every Word

Time Bomb
Funny Thing
Throwbacks (Bonus, Vinyl Only)
” Live Action “
Back when KILLA BEN went by the name BEN BUFORD he dropped a couple very ill 12 inches (Hitman 4 Hire / Exercise & Emcee Killer)…..I’m not quite sure why or how, but it seems as if these hardcore slabs of wax didn’t receive the burn that should have when they initially dropped in the early 2000’s…
Here is a live performance of KB going for his in Long Beach, California when “Exercise” was fresh out the pack….
” Debonair P : Limited Steez “
Less than 24 hours ago, Australian DJ/producer DEBONAIR P dropped this limited edition megamix….With a track listing like this I’m quite sure the HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD faithful will find something to rock…

” Sage Infinite : Space Out “
My objective with HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD is to present many aspects of this artform – past, present and future….I’m not one of those cats that stays frozen in time or believes new fly shit doesn’t exist…..Many of the people I come across only listen to their own music or close affiliates, but as a DJ it is imperative that I keep my ears open and busy as possible…It might sound corny or lame to some of the HHB readers when I state that “I’m still a fan, after all these years”…..
Anyway, here is some new shit that is worthy of some decent mixtape burn – Sage Infinite, “Space Out”….
” Divine Styler Speaks “
Do yourself a favor and check out this recent interview with the reclusive innovator DIVINE STYLER on the SOUTHERN VANGUARD broadcast….Over two hours of nonstop jewelry on deck…
” Dr.OOP Capone : Reel Ninja “
Right after I heard this new joint by KANKICK & Dr.OOP Capone (Reel Ninja) – I called OOP up and told him that he sounds ill over “KK” beats and that they should rock a full length project…He proceeded to inform that a collaborative EP is already finished and fully mastered – and they were in talks with a few labels to get it out there….
PEEP….
” Ayatollah : Rhythm Roulette “
AYATOLLAH pulled out the MPC 500 for the latest edition of Rhythm Roulette…Congrats to my cuzzo for the much deserved spotlight..
PEEP..
” Tone Hooker : On The Rise “
Here is a little treat for the HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD daily readers….TONE HOOKER who was once apart of Original Flavor (Remember- Can I Get Open) put out a few 12’s in the mid-late 90’s….If you didn’t hear them when they initially dropped don’t feel bad – they were white label joints that didn’t really circulate to heavy….
“On The Rise” – 1996
” Blog Shots “
Every once in awhile I will point you in the direction of certain blogs that are holding the goods…90’s Hip Hop is a spot that rocks under the radar joints that will activate your antennae..
