Total Chaos !!!

Absolute incredible underground rap heater outta NYC by a group called Total Chaos !!!

As you know 1993 was a very good year for underground Hip Hop and a lot of brilliant independent releases such as Sons Of Sam, Lord Aaqil, Massive Ring etc. have been released and this one right here is straight up the same alley !!!

The 12" was released on Urban Soul Records, produced by Chris "The Black Poet" Wilson and is featuring 2 incredibly dope tracks titled "Whoz Got Da Myk" & "Cum & Get Sum" !!!

Very though to find piece of wax, so you better keep your eyes open !!!

Check ot a sample of "Whoz Got Da Myk":

Nightbreed !!!

What we have right here is something for the true Natural Elements heads, Nightbreed !!!

Nightbreed was founded by none else but one of the original early Natural Elements group members KA after he left the group !!!

To be true, KA was always one of my favourite members of the original Natural Elements in the early 90s so it was a no brainer to cop this debut 12" by KA & Kev aka Nightbreed titled "2 Roads Out The Ghetto" !!!

The 12" was released in 1998 on Fortress Records, produced by Charlemagne and is featuring 3 dope tracks titled "2 Roads Out The Ghetto", "Long Time Coming" & "Ruckus" !!!

There are some very hot demos around which were played by Stretch & Bobbito back in the days which hopefully will se a quality wax treatment anytime in the near future !!!

N.Y. Confidential !!!

Next record up in this place is also a very dope EP which dropped in 1998, this time outta NYC by a group called N.Y. Confidential !!!

This EP right here is the perfect listening for the cold snowy weather we have outside at the moment !!!

Brilliant 5 tracker released on Guillotine Records NYC which totally produced by E. Knight and features the titles "Why?", "Rumors Of War", "Backstabbed", "Anger Consumes" & "Me & You" !!!

There´s also another 12" out by N.Y. Confidential which got released in 2000 on Guilotine Records as well, but to me it´s all about their debut EP right here !!!

Mr Ruckuz !!!

Mad nice solo debut EP from Baltimores very own Mr Ruckuz !!!

There aren´t many rap records out there which were released in 1998 or later that are straight up my alley, but this one right here is one big exception !!!

If you´re a true 90s head, you get everything you wanna hear, Jay Funk Productions at it´s best, Mr Ruckuz spittin verses at his best and last but not least some nice chrous scratching with some of your favourites lines !!!

There are 6 tracks on this EP titled "The Resurrection", "Chump Change", "Underground Anthem", "Senselezz Murderz", "She Was 19" & "Hung Jury" !!!

I could tell you a lot about how dope this record is, but to cut a long story short, this solo debut EP by Mr Ruckus titled "The Verdict", released on Madd Versatile Records in 1998 is the shit that you need to get !!!

Not an easy find, but def. worth it !!!

Lord Aaqil !!!

Alright, time for one of my favourite slept on Hip Hop 12"s of the early 90s by a guy outta Philly who goes by the name of Lord Aaqil !!!

This 12" right here titled "Check It Out" is easily one of the best independent Hip Hop 12"s that got put out in 93 and i would have absolutely no problem with naming it with 12"s like Sons Of Sam "Oooh He Got An Afro" & Massive Ring "Middle East" in one breath !!!

In fact, if this material would have been released on a major label back then it would be in line with all the big hitters like Main Source, Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth or Showbiz & A.G., Diamond D etc. !!!

The 12" contains 5 tracks in total titled "Check It Out", "Kick It Like Dis", "Kid, What´s Ya Name", "Kick It Like Dis RMX" & "Kamillah Story" !!!

All of the tracks are dope, but "Kid, What´s Ya Name" & "Kick It Like Dis" are the stand out tracks !!!

Not an easy 12" to find and always seem to fetch a big amount of money on auctions but trust me, it´s worth it !!!

Frankenstein !!!

Alright, you may wonder why the hell is he posting a picture of a Peanut Butter Wolf test pressing when the headline clearly states that this post is about Torontos very own Frankenstein !!!

Well, it´s simple because Frankenstein (who is most probably known to you) is not only a very talented MC, he´s also a even more talented producer who did a lot of dope remixes and a very dope one for Peanut Butter Wolf "Run The Line RMX" 12" too (which is most probably not known to everyone) !!!

It´s no secret that Peanut Butter Wolf brought you some of the dopest underground 12"s in the mid to late 90s, in fact he did one of the best late 90s underground rap 12"s when he put out "Run The Line" featuring Rasco and "Undercover" featuring Encore on the flip !!!

While the "Run The Line" 12" got a official release through Stones Throw Records, Peanut Butter Wolf was working on a extremly dope follow up remix 12" featuring a mad nice remix of "Run The Line" by DITCs very own Lord Finesse as well as a remix by Mark The 45 King and put a monster remix of Encore "The Undercover" by Frankenstein on the flip !!!

Sadly only a few test pressings were made (i heard there are only 25 copies in existance similar to the Rass Kass "Jack Frost" test pressing) and the record never got a official release (due to sample clearance) through Stones Throw Records !!!

There was a picture cover available for the 12" in different colors than the original version which ended up with a sticker reading "This Is NOT A Remix" which was put over the Remix printed on the cover which is featuring the catalog number STH-2010 of this test pressing !!!

There later was a Japanese pressing of "Run The Line RMX" by Lord Finesse on Copasetik Recordings, but sadly the dope Frankenstein Remix of "The Undercover" was missing on this one !!!

Anyway, this one is easily the rarest record put out by Stones Throw Records ever and it´s also a incredibly dope one to get for the Frankenstein heads out there !!!

Unsigned Artists !!!

Back once again with another dope various artist EP outta NYC which goes by the name of Unsigned Artists EP !!!

Like the Nodyaheadtodis Vol. 1 EP i posted 4 years ago this one right here is a true want list killer on most of the mid 90s independent Hip Hop collectors out there (for a good reason) !!!

This record is not only extremely dope, it´s also extremely hard to find !!!

Anyway, the reason to get your hands on a copy of this Unsigned Artists EP for most peeps out there is def. the track "Bullet For A Bullet" by War Click !!!

It´s not the only dope track, but it´s def. one of the hottest joints from a pretty unknown group which is highly slept on and never had a real deal to release their music through a wider audience !!!

There are 7 tracks in total on this EP which are performed / titled by War Click "Bullet For A Bullet", Slasher "Cutthroat Island", Open Mic & L.D. "Co-Defendant", Baby Sharks "Legacy Of Pain", Angels Wit Dirty Faces "Angel´s Cipher", Nut & Slick Love "Nutta Butta Baby" & Kim Jackson & Slick Love "Mak'Em Feel It" !!!

The EP was released in 1996 as a promotional wax only and executively produced by Slick Love, Peter Rueben, Fritz Jean & Charlie Plange !!!

If you ever get the chance to getyour hands on a copy, you better grab it while you can !!!
