Classic "BRUCIE B" Mixtape's "Taking You To The Old school II" + Danny Dan The Beatman & Grandmaster Caz 1988 Breakbeat Tape

Here are two for the road, one I actually own on Tape myself "Taking Back To The Oldschool II" (but I only Have side A And Looking for Side B as we speak) SO MANY OF YOUR FAVORITE CLASSIC BREAK BEATS Being stomped out....And the other tape is one I found online, it is a Mixtape from 1990 that contains a lot of Dope Oldschool Hip Hop & Breakbeats, I assume it was the talk of the town back in NYC's 1990 as one Of Brucie's stellar put-outs. We All know, Brucie B was one of the forerunners of the mixtape game, Him along side, DJ Starchild, Doo-wop, Kid Capri, Ron B, And before those guys, People like Wiz Kid, were doing what we call "House tapes" or mixes done at home, on cassette and put on the streets. Grandmaster Caz is even accredited for putting out numerous house tapes for the B-boys or joints for the streets. Sometimes mixes were done live where you can hear the eclectic voices of said brothers like Brucie B Or Starchild yelling over the music as they consume the crowd at places such as the Fever, the Rooftop and The LQ (Latin Quarters). NOW THAT'S CLASSIC. If you like to bump oldschool classic mixes with breaks and Hip Hop joints, here it is.

Super Rarety Sureshot: Dupont - "Burn" From 1983's West Coast Documentary Film "Breakin "N" Enterin'

Now I came across this interesting joint a very good Digital copy of such (would still love to own the vinyl of this record, which I heard was reissued in 2008) so I immediately downloaded it, after hearing this several years ago watching the "Breakin "N" Enterin' Doc on You tube, and caught an in depth underground glimpse into the 1983 Hip Hop scene in Los Angeles without the commercialized BS of Hollywood movie productions. I heard this record and started my search for it. If you have been wondering who and what this cool Synth- pop R&B Record is by. The answer is: DUPONT progenator of the later 80's duo Milli &Vanilli. Dupont who started out in 1983 and released some records, an ablum as well, under his real name "Dupont randolph-Gray". Here is a quick History (Via Discogs): Signed to Total Experience Records and recorded three tracks for the film "Breakin' and Enterin'" in 1983. Moved to London, England in 1984 to look for another record label. Signed to Stone City Music in 1985. Started the International Musique Society in 1986 with Gloria Hann. Helped to form Milli Vanilli and signed to MCA in 1987. This record is definitely a cool Westcoast easly Electro Synth Pop representation in all its glory. Please note, This & two other songs by the artist does not appear on the final 5 track EP "Breakin "N" Enterin' only pressed in extreme limited quantites, however it intended to, as all three of the Dupont Tracks never made it on the final release. so this song as well as the other 2 were never officially released whatsoever (You may want to look those up too. I could not find good copies of the other two, only botched Youtube video-audio edited attempts). There is a 2008 release of the EP, which includes all three of the Dupont tracks in addition to the 5 Radio Crew Tracks. I believe that cna be purchased maybe, Look that up as well. Here is artwork for the Motion Picture release and the Dupont "Burn" track (downloadable) below

Also Bonus!! "BREAKIN "N" ENTERIN by THE RADIO CREW (Ice T, Egyptian Lover, Chris The Glove Taylor & Super AJ) The Title track of the documentary, and was released on a 5 EP Record that was only pressed a few times and is extremely rare. 

DJ Hotday / Super Kids - Hot Day Master Mix & The Tragedy (Dont Do it)" & "Go Queensbridge"

DJ Hotday / Super Kids straight out of Queens, some of the pioneering Queens bred MC and DJ duos, this record right here featuring sample from New Editions "Once In  A Lifetime Groove" "Ike's Mood", Public Enemies Song Of Public Enemy" & Seven Minutes Of Funk"... I am working on getting more from DJ Hotday & Super Kids. Also bonus below features a young "Intelligent Hoodlum" aka Tragedy Khadafi both "The Tragedy (Dont Do It)" & "Go Queensbridge". And if you listen to it, you can hear that MC Shan, Roxanne Shante influence. It is the Queensbridge style. Super kids was a duo consisting of DJ Hotday & Tragedy Khadafi. They went on to influence & Breed the likes of Nas, Cormega, Mobb Deep and many others.

Masters Of Ceremony - CRIME (WHOOOF)

North of the Bronx, just beyond the New York City limits, lay three Westchester County areas that each have contributed to the history of New York hip-hop. Yonkers was the stomping ground of DMX and The LOX. Mount Vernon brought forth Heavy D & The Boyz and Pete Rock & CL Smooth. New Rochelle (separated from NYC by the barely mile-wide strip of Pelham Manor) gave us Brand Nubian and the Masters of Ceremony, the latter being Grand Puba's crew before the former were conceived. The Masters of Ceremony debuted in 1985 with the single "Crime," which was co-produced by a yet unknown Teddy Riley and followed up by the two '86 singles "Sexy" and "Cracked Out."

The group's line-up featured Grand Puba Maxwell and his cousin Dr. Who (AKA TLD), both MC's, and DJ Shabazz, as well as several dancers, all in all amounting to six people populating the futuristic album cover of their 1988 debut "Dynamite" (think six b-boys just beamed down from another planet). The cover looks a lot fancier than that of "Critical Beatdown," and yet in terms of outer-space hip-hop funk the baby steps of the Masters of Ceremony don't hold a candle to the visionary beats and rhymes of the Ultramagnetic MC's. They lasted from 85-88 something like that, anyway they dropped the famous CRACKED OUT, DYNAMITE Singles & some other Joints. A few albums too. But this one is one of their earlier joints, a single called "CRIME. (1985) (Sorry no instrumental yet) You know I love the Socially Consciousness of the early 80's Hip Hop Records. Speaking truth, if you have not heard this one, STOP! and listen. and if you have it and have been rocking this jam for decades you know what time it is. A solid Electro-Rap gem with some singing and rapping, all about doing crime and its consequences. A far cry from today's Rap content. Of course I added that download link. Oh wait Syke, I do have the Dub version and I included that too!!

A definite B-boy Jam from 1985 as well as a party-rocker you could get down with the honey's to at the Saturday night jam. Think Gold door knocker Earings, Fila Sneakers, Stone washed jeans, bulky Varsity coats , Cazels, Shell-Top Adidas, Track Suits and Rope Chains. A two for one smash!
