" Edan Radio Show Part One "
Edan has a good ear for quality music.If you don’t have his “Fast Rap” mixtape, you need to go swoop that up with a quickness.
On this 2 hour radio show, he plays a very diverse selection of music…Breaks, old school under the radar joints, and all types of other shit…
Sit back, relax, get your mind right, and catch a vibe….
" B.X. Bombers- 3rd Eye Edition "
There was a time when ” 3rd Eye, A.K.A. Jesse West ” was rolling with ” Bad Boy “…….He was poised to be the next big thing out of New York after dropping cut’s like ” Ease Up ” ( which was featured on the Who’s The Man Soundtrack ), ” Dolly My Baby RMX ” ( Supercat ) featuring Notorious B.I.G., and some ill verses on several mixtapes in the early 90’s helped garner a heavy street buzz for the release of his upcoming Bad Boy album…..
Somewhere along the way, he parted way’s with ” P- DIZZY ” , Craig Mack’s album blew up, B.I.G. blew up, and 3rd focused more on his beat game, producing songs for ” Ill Biscuits ” ( Exclusive Debut ), ” Positive K ” ( Supreme Alphabet ), ” Xzibit ( What You See Is What You Get ), ” Top Quality ” ( What ), etc……..
In 1999, ” 3rd ” released an album ( Planets ) that had a couple heaters on it…..This cut ” Naw Mean ” featuring ” Nine “, is one of them……Salute
" On My B – Boy Shit "
Get you floorwork together and go for your’s kid, and just maybe you will walk away with that 1500 dollars….You can catch me and ” Mr. Funk What Ya Heard ” , wrecking the breaks and causing much damage….. ( YOU UNDERSTAND ME )…
Big shout out to War Party Z’s for making it happen…YEE-YEE..

" The Don "
Don Lett’s is the European version of ” Fab 5 Freddy “…(That might not be the most accurate comparison, but I think you get the picture)….As a cultural ambassador, ” Don ” has brought together more people than many so – called government’s…
He is credited as being one of the first D.J.’s in Europe to meld reggae and punk rock music into his sets, which influenced the ” Clash ” and numerous bands of that era, and beyond…
Don directed ” Musical Youth’s ” first video ( Pass The Dutchie ), ” Dance Hall Queen “, and his movie ” Westway To The World “, won a grammy in 2003..
There are plenty of accolades that I have not mentioned…I guess you will have to pick up the book ( like I did ) to get the full run down…..

" In The Sucker Free "
Props to ” Vinrock ” for sending me this info….Tomorrow night looks like a doozy…..
" Tribute To The Villain In Black "
M.C. Ren is one of the King’s Of The West…..Period….Dudes talk about Snoop, Crooked I, etc…But the Ruthless Villain doesn’t get enough shine when this regional king talk start’s poppin up….
Here are a couple lines that should refresh your memory..
” I hit a nigga off in the head with a chair / the reason for that, the motherfucker he was standing there “…( M.C Ren – Final Frontier )…
” Anytime that the 9 wanna leave, I got a 38 hidden up the sleeve / And it’s ready to go to war, cause that’s what it’s here for, I shoot down a million nigga’s and shoot one more “…..( M.C.Ren – Appetite For Destruction )…
” They want a nigga dead or alive / cause I don’t talk jive, I try to survive “…( M.C. Ren – Mayday On The Frontline )…
I could truly go on forever ( off the top of my head ) but I think you get the picture…Strange thing is, after Ren put out the ” Kiss My Black Ass E.P. ” I stopped checking for him a little bit…I liked that E.P., but his follow up record ( Shock Of The Hour ) switched up the production dramatically.
Regardless, their is not many dudes that brought that hardcore shit like Ren…You actually felt the tension soon as he grabbed the mic back then….Salute to you Ren, for making me write better rhymes….
Check out this extensive interview ” Dubb CNN ” conducted with Ren awhile back…..POW,POW,
And just to keep it funky, here are a couple videos to get hype to…C.P.O. featuring Ren- Ballad Of A Menace.
