From the days of Nervous and Weeded Records, Smif N Wessun helped usher in a mid-'90s fusion of Hip-Hop and Reggae/Dancehall that also included KRS-One, Prince Ital Joe, Mad Lion, Afu-Ra, Capleton, and The Fugees. Tek and General Steele keep it Brooklyn, but team with Jahdan for "Shots In The... Read more

After a few collaborations lately, Heltah Skeltah's Sean Price and M.O.P.'s Lil Fame seem to have found that Brownsville chemistry after 20-plus years in the game, respectively. The Outdoorsmen/longtime Wu-Tang Clan affiliate DJ J-Love (who also rhymes on here) linked the pair on "NY Barbarians." While this is the clean... Read more

Two mid-'90s alums link up in this Heltah Skeltah-meets-Sunz Of Man connection. Simple and effective... with an album worth checking... Read more

I absolutely love this. Veteran Mobb Deep affiliate Illa Ghee continues his recent run with Sean Price—who, mind you, is one of the most ferocious freestylers left in Hip-Hop. Over-top of Kraftwerk's "Trans Europe Express" (posted below, it's also the basis for Afrika Bambaataa & The Soulsonic Force's "Planet Rock"),... Read more
