These unreleased joints by Del aren’t exactly demos per se, they are more like glimpses into his early stages of constructing songs before the creation of the Hieroglyphics….
Nevertheless, it’s interesting to hear him rocking over Sir Jinx production……Take a listen JACK !!!

“The DJBooth has joined forces with Grammy Award winning producer, artist, teacher and Jamla Records founder 9th Wonder to present Tutankhamen, a new instrumental project that’s every bit as royal (and potentially deadly) as the name suggests.
Included on Tutankhamen are a full 40 beats, including some of 9th’s classic instrumentals (The Bodega, BarberShop, The End) and more, as well as exclusive, previously unreleased treats. Emcees, producer, DJs, lovers of the culture, enjoy”…

This past weekend Mr. Funk What Ya Heard, Sha Boogie, & myself spun at the first Art Walk of the year in the lovely city of Oakland, California….Tons of people were wilding in the streets, beautiful ladies were in the house, the weather was gorgeous, and we most definitely kept the Hip Hop pumping at loud decibels..
The following day we trooped out to the “Hip Hop In the Park” jam in Berkley for some Cinco De Mayo morale….I gotta be honest ya’ll, I heard a lot of wack bars flying off the stage….I’m talking ELEMENTARY SCHOOL GOOFBALL BARS..
Some of you cats need to put the motherfuckin microphones down, and pick up some type of Hip Hop manual or something..It’s o.k. to be a fan…Everyone doesn’t have to rhyme..
Anyway, big up to my dudes for holding down our area : Kufu, Reef, Planet, Sha, GL, Fooderz, Prize, etc..I will post up pics sometime this week..
The good folks over at Sergent Records are re-releasing the Finsta Bundy, “Finsta Baby” 12 inch….The package also includes a never released track entitled “Activate” that was produced by Mr. Evil Dee…
Take a listen to what this former Black Moon member has on deck…
And while your at it, you might as well peep Finsta’s website…It’s loaded with proverbs, ill stories, and all types of Hip Hop related content…
Kev Brown, Kaimbr and Early Reed (Low Budget Crew) are the special guest on the latest broadcast from Subsoniq Radio..
You will hear tons of music and even a joke or two..

Here is another dangerous self-produced remix to keep your ear drums ringing…
This time I gave Mic Geronimo the BATTLEFIELD face lift treatment..
Raw drums – CHECK, ugly sample abuse – CHECK, menacing sequences – CHECK, pandemonium banging out the speakers – CHECK MATE MOTHERFUCKER !!
At this point I have probably splashed ya’ll with over a hundred remix joints…Add this to your stash if you know what time it is…
“Shit Is Real” Drasar Monumental remix…
” If I can take it, it’s mine son I’m as slum as they come / we live and die for the loot, but I don’t care where your from, we be the poisonous youth, every suspects a goner”…
On the heavily slept on single from Dynasty (Wildcat/Poisonous Youth) “Classy Freddy Blassie” & “Stroker Brown” let off a full clip of nonstop action…
This sizzling piece of wax was released on Fat Beats in the late 90’s – early 2000’s I’m guessing (it doesn’t have a date on the record)..
Anyway, Dynasty went on to put out another single “Outlaw / Gotta Love It”, but unfortunately the crew never released a full length…What a motherfucking shame because these cats were definitely on to something..
Produced by Armstead..
It’s crazy how some of these “bloggers” dick ride so hard…
I’m starting to see the same 25 songs EVERYWHERE…With so much access to a variety of recorded music, why are some of these motherfuckers posting the exact same shit as the next man ?…
I can picture those cornballs right now sweating profusely while gazing at their computer screen, “So and so posted this up so I have to follow suit or my blog will be looking naked”…
GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE!!!
Originality is a key component when it comes to this Hip Hop art form ya’ll..
Now that I got that out of the way I’m going to post some Wu- related material that you might have slept on when it initially dropped.”Wu- Underground” by DJ Swarm has a few scorchers on it..
BLAM,BLAM,BLAMZ…

Even though I have enjoyed Scott Down & Cutler mixes in the past, when I first spotted “Ultimate Breaks & Beatles” awhile back I simply dismissed it as another NEW AGE gimmick without even listening to it….
What a fucking mistake….
These guys pull out all the stops – Heavy layering, unpredictable twist and turns, loads of scratches, blends, insane editing, and all types of other shit that I can’t even begin to describe…
Over an hour of absolute chaos…
“In the tradition of its two titanic subjects, the mix defies genre; at once spanning, re-contextualizing, and transcending everything from classical to blues to jazz to rock to rap in just over and hour. Unlike your neighborhood hipster laptop DJ’s latest trendy “mash ups”, there were absolutely no software, sequencers, or techno used here–just a ton of vinyl, two turntables, a mixer, and an 8 track”…
When I first heard Akbar’s Groove on Jamalski’s “Roughneck Reality” album I damn near lost my marbles…Two minutes of pure B-Boy adrenalin…
Akbar went on to release a couple singles and a poorly marketed album on Ill Boogie Records…Solid material, but I don’t think it captured his full potential..Don’t get it twisted though cousin – Akbar is still clutching mic’s and doing his thing in the new millennium…
On this cut from 2011 (Good Food) he keeps the wordplay crisp…
And while your at it you might as well peep the “Akbar’s Groove” video to help you get your mind right!!
This mix by former Original Flavor member “DJ Chubby Chubb” features one of my favorite slept on joints from the 90’s, “Cock Back The Nine” by the mysterious outfit Camouflage Large…
I rarely hear anyone talking about this group for some reason…

Red Alert helped jump start the careers of BDP, Vicious (remember him ?), Jungle Brothers, and ATCQ to name a few…I would even go as far to state that without the assistance of “Red”, it’s a possibility the Native Tongue movement wouldn’t have reached the heights that it did…
On his final broadcast with Kiss FM he lets loose a barrage of head nodders..Peep what the man had to say regarding his last session on the station..
“AS I’M ABOUT TO DO MY FINAL SHOW ON 98.7 KISS FM (10PM – 12 MIDNIGHT EST), I CALL IT THE “THANK YOU MIX”. MANY BELIEVED, ENJOYED & SUPPORTED ME DURING MY TIME ON THIS STATION, I AM GRATEFUL & HONORED TO HAVE YOU BY MY SIDE. YES I LEFT KISS FM SEVERAL TIMES TO WORK AT OTHER STATIONS (HOT 97 & POWER 105) BUT I ALWAYS RETURNED HOME WHERE I FIRST STARTED. THIS TIME THERE IS NO COMING BACK AS KISS FM COMES TO AN END. SOME MAY REMEMBER ME WHEN I FIRST STARTED UNDER AFRIKA BAMBAATAA & THE ALMIGHTY UNIVERSAL ZULU NATION, BUT KISS FM IS THE PLACE THAT BROUGHT ME OUT TO THE FOREFRONT. TO ALL STAFF MEMBERS THAT I’VE WORKED WITH AT THE STATION THROUGH THE YEARS I WANT TO THANK YOU, WE HAD GREAT TIMES. TO EVERYONE I’VE MET THROUGH OUT MY CAREER (ASSOCIATES, BUSINESS, ETC) I ALSO WANT TO THANK YOU. MOST IMPORTANTLY I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU TO THE LISTENERS WHO MAY HAVE HAD DIFFICULT & STRESSFUL TIMES, BUT STILL TUNED INTO THE RADIO TO HELP THEM GET THROUGH IT ALL, I THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO ENTERTAIN YOU.”
