It took 2 years for Canadian DJs Scratch Bastid and The Gaff to complete this epic mix of soul music featuring the finest divas from the 60s and 70s. 100% Female Funk, Soul, R&B & Breaks. Dig it.
It's Friday. It's payday. It's my birthday! Let's celebrate with Angel Haze gettin' gritty all of this Gil Scott-Heron cut.
Ms. Melodie was the female emcee reppin' the Boogie Down Productions crew and was once married to KRS-One. I lost track of her after their fallout but she went hard back in the day. R.I.P. Queen.
This track is a party starter. Always has been. I've been a fan of Tip's flow since first hearing him in 1990. This cut just vibes - so fresh. Also, dig the sample source, "I Wanna Stay" by Love Unlimited Orchestra (featuring Barry White). Stay cool.
So much to say about this track. Eazy's solo debut, Eazy Duz It, was realeased in the fall of 1988 - but I don't think I got my hands on it until the following summer. We were all attracted to his voice and general gangsta-ness but it wasn't until later that we realized he couldn't rap (or write...most of his verses were ghostwritten by Ice Cube, MC Ren and The D.O.C.). The fake interview bits are terrible but this is as good as it gets for an Eazy track. I think the thing I love most about it these days are the number of lists in the song. Check it....
"I specalize in gankin' whites, mexicans, brothers and others"
"Brother don't you know that you can't trust a theif or thug, convict, hoodlum or criminal"
"Anybody gettin' on my nerves will get beat, ganked, broke and served"
"Fill the boy, homeboy, don't lag - I want money, beer and a pack of zig-zags"
