Bronx Criminal County !!!

Heavyweight release outta the Bronx by a group called DNA !!!

This 12" contains 3 dope tracks titled "Bronx Criminal County", "My Shit Iz Tight" and the to the most people unknown but def. bomb track "2 Ounces & A Dream" !!!

The 12" dropped in 1996 on Redzone Recordings and is produced by Garth "Dread" Mitchell, D. Gray, N. Tillman & M. Marcelle !!!

ATTENTION: I´ve seen on some want lists that there are some peeps out there looking for a version of the "Bronx Criminal County" 12" thinking the 3rd track on this 12" is titled "Nowhere To Run" and not "2 Ounces & A Dream", but this is a complete misunderstanding because of another group outta NYC called DNA Disciples which released a 12" titled "Nowhere To Run" / "Agony Of Defeat" arround the same time !!!

Nodyaheadtodis !!!

While i´m on the EP tip, i´m going to post about another incredibly hot independent EP outta NYC !!!

This time it´s outta Brooklyn and titled Nodyaheadtodis Vol. 1 !!!

The EP was released in 1996 on Discreet Records and features 6 tracks from 6 different groups outta NY titled The Answering Machine "Who´s Calling?", Son A Bluntz "Don´t Snooze", Rodan "Rockabye", Darcside "Moneycide", VA "Dem Dead" & Dre Black "Better With Time" !!!

Beside "Dem Dead" all of the tracks featured on this EP are dope and for the most peeps out there it´s all about the Darcyde and Rodan appearances but trust me, the Son A Bluntz "Don´t Snooze" & the Dre Black "Better With Time" are def. the main reason to get this EP !!!

There is also a Nodyaheadtodis Vol. 2 on Discreet Records which is pretty ok, but for the most peeps it´s all about Vol. 1 !!!

Mytee G. Poetic !!!

Straight outta New Jersey comes this dope artist who goes by the name of Mytee G. Poetic !!!

This one right here is his debut 12" titled "Com'n Wit Nuff Ruffness" from 1994 on Straight G'n Records which is produced by Na'fis Majid & Kool Ass Pat for Brand X Production and is featuring 2 pretty dope tracks titled "Com'n Wit Nuff Ruffness" & "Listen To The Lyrics" !!!

Mytee G. Poetic released another 12" 2 years later titled "Discovery Zone" which doesn´t hit my taste that much anymore !!!

Anyway, the "Com'n Wit Nuff Ruffness" 12" is def. a nice piece of plastic which is always worth to look out for !!!

ATTENTION: There are 2 different versions of the "Com'n Wit Nuff Ruffness" 12" floating around which have different tracks on the B side (one with "Listen To The Lyrics" & one with "Brick City Blue´z") so if you´re looking for the one with "Listen To The Lyrics" on it you have to make sure that the version you´re buying is not the promo version which does have an Acapella of "Com'n Wit Nuff Ruffness" on it as well which isn´t featured on the one with "Listen To The Lyrics" !!!

The Concept Of ALPS !!!

One of my favourite unknown groups in Hip Hop goes by the name of ALPS Cru !!!

This group is so highly selpt on that it hurts !!!

ALPS Cru comes straight outta St. Louis and consists of the members Dj Al Bass, P Smooth & Rob III !!!

It took quiet some time to find any of their material on wax which is without a doubt because they only pressed up very small quantities of their music on wax and it looks like that most people keep it cause they never pop up for sale !!!

The Concept Of ALPS released 3 records in the mid 90´s and all of them are pure fire:

"Pitstop" (1994)

"Intensity" (1995)

"Just Can´t Explain" (1996)

This one right here is their 2nd one titled "Intensity", released in 1995 on Blue Concept Records and contains 3 dope tracks titled "Intensity", "Nocturnal Illusions" & "No Question" !!!

All tracks are produced by Dj Al Bass !!!

Check out a sample of "Intensity":
