" De La In The Mix "
D.J Manifest put this mixtape together awhile back….Rare joints, blends, and remixes…..You know what to do homeboy..
" Drasar Monumental On The Remix "
If you have shitty computer speakers, the heavy bass on this joint might just blow you right out of the game……For this weeks remix I flipped, ” Inspector Deck ” ( Move )…And the results are very flavorful ( If I may say so myself )….
NO MIDI, NO KEYBOARDS, NO HOMO….And I want to thank everyone for downloading these remixes, it is appreciated….And be on the lookout for the ” Roughneck Radio Remix ” project that me and ” Mr Funk What Ya Heard ” are working on….It’s going to shake a lot of motherfuckers down, so stay tuned for that in the near future…..Enjoy…

" J Rocc + Dilla’s Crates = Freshness "
Here is what ” J Rocc ” had to say regarding this mix….
” This is a mix of nothing but Dil’s Record collection..
…the original source for the beats.
Half of this mix is on “The Ma Dukes Collection”…this is that mix with a 2nd half added.
(There is a 3rd and 4th half)
Also….If you know these records…don’t call it out..I don’t like doing these type of mixes because I’ve seen artist get popped because of these type of mixes..not everyone can afford to clear some of these loops…..thank you ” .
You heard what the man said….Just enjoy the mix and don’t try any slick shit and you should be straight HAHAHA….
" World Famous Supreme Team Interview "
C Divine and Just Allah ( The Supreme Team ) are true Hip Hop pioneers…On WHBI radio, they bumrushed the airwaves with the language of the ” Gods And Earths ” in the early 80’s..
They eventually went on to recording their own music ” Buffalo Girls “, ” Duck Rock “, and one of my personal favorites ” Hey D.J. “….
I recently spotted a interview with ” C Divine ” in cyberspace that is very thorough….You don’t want to sleep on this one JACK…
Major respect to Troy L. Smith for being on point…100
" Cymarshall Law Goes In "
Cymarshall Law Freestyle Over DJ Premier Take it Personal Live in Philly 2009 from Cymarshall Law on Vimeo.
Sounds like ” Cy ” isn’t playing games folks….Stop sleepin..
" 88 Mindstate "
I’m going to take you all the way back to 1988 with this joint…Door knocker earrings, bicycle shorts, 8 Ball jackets, and sweaty jherri curls were everywhere you looked…1988 was also the year that ” N.W.A. ” started to really pop…
Everyone started copying ” N.W.A’s ” formula…Many crews started rocking Raider/Kings gear and it seemed like overnight microwave gangster rap sets started popping up….The cats that veered away from this motif stood out, and that’s where ” 7A3 ” comes into the picture…Bretty B and Shawny B were originally from New York, but migrated out west in the 80’s….The third member of ” 7A3 ” ( Grand Mixer Muggs ) was also from New York but eventually settled in L.A.
With the help of the ” Bomb Squad ” and ” Joe The Butcher “, they released the classic album ” Coolin In Cali “….Instead of gangster posturing, they chose to take more of a B Boy approach….Heavy doses of scratching, breaks, and window shattering bass were thrown in the mix…
7A3 went on to make another album, but eventually things fizzled out for the crew….Muggs went on to form ” Cypress Hill ” and the rest is history….I never heard anything else from ” Bretty B ” or ” Shawn “, which is crazy because this record did get a lot of burn at the time….If you guys are out there, get at me, it would be interesting to hear your side of the story….
" Mixtape Action "
I’m quite sure you have heard many ” Wu ” mixes over the years…But this ” Omega NYC ” jump off, flips the steelo a little differently…Over 45 minutes of blends, rarities, and classic joints makes this a keeper….2 thumbs up…
" Preemo Interview "
I wish ” Preem ” and ” Guru ” would start making records again…A lot of people sleep on ” Guru “, and tend to give ” P ” all the credit for the Gangstarr albums…Sure ” G ‘ would slip some elementary school rhymes in there every once in a while ( lemonade was a popular drink and it still is haha ) but he would sprinkle a gang of proverbs, and social commentary in the mix as well…
He is/was a well rounded M.C. that didn’t stay stuck in one braggadocio zone..Please, for the sake of the fans, clique back up before too much time passes by… And on that note, here is a ” Preem ” interview conducted on ” Conspiracy Radio ” recently…
" Funky Technician On The Set "
Lord Finesse is a triple threat when it comes to this Hip Hop shit….You already know he is nasty with the production and the rhymes, but he is no slouch on the decks either…
On this ” Diggin On Blue ” mix, he unveils some top notch jewels from the ” Blue Note ” vaults …2 Thumbs Up homeboy…
" 4 All The Wu- Headz "
The picture ( above ) reminds me of how I was living from 1994-1999..HAHA….Who am I kidding, I’m still living like that…. .Anyway, let’s get into some demo shit real quick…
If you thought the 36 Chambers version of ” Bring The Ruckus ” was raw, you need to hear this as well…( R.I.P. ODB )
Unfortunately this cut, ” Enter The Wu- Tang ” didn’t make it on to 36 Chambers…For some reason ” RZA ” decided to use it ( with different lyrics ) on ” Gravediggers ” first album…
" Paul Nice Rocks The Breaks "
This is the second time in 2 weeks ” Paul Nice ” has been featured on the BATTLEFIELD…And you want to know why dunny?..It’s because he has a good ear for quality music ( check the Brazilian mix for reference )….On this breaks mix, ” PN ” goes in kinda heavy….Get your motherfuckin mind right and CHECK IN…
" Buck Wild Mixtape "
All the way from France comes ” D.J. Kozi ” ( Hip Hop Resistance Crew ).. He put this ” Best Of Buckwild ” mixtape together awhile back, and it definitely showcases ” Buck’s ” skills behind the boards.. …..This is for all the ” D.I.T.C. ” fiends out there ( like myself ) who check for anything related to the crew……And in case your wondering about the kicks, those are the ” Buckwild ” AF1’s designed at the Bespoke Labs….Pow..Pow..Here is the playlist THUN..

" Baby Paul From The Beat Minerz Interview "
Baby Paul is such a low key cat, that many folks forget he was a member of the ” Beat Minerz ” production team….Matter of fact he was the third member, coming on board before ” Rich Black ” and ” Chocolate Ty ” ….
I found a dope interview with him that you need to peep…Big up 2 ” SS ” for holding it down..
" Blog Shots 9 "
Quit sleeping on ” Roddy Rodd “….His work with ” Maspyke “, and the ” Bluntpark Session ” album were packed with very original, funky production…And on the D.J. tip, ” RR ” get’s it in…
Check out this ” De La Soul ” mix that he put together, at his new and improved blog…Make sure you tell em that kid from HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD sent you jack…
