RAWWWWWN GEEEE


Another mixtape from the mid-90s that sold like hotcakes up and down the east coast. Again, thanks to the back of the Source, I discovered Street Dreams. Aside from the music, what got me into mixtapes from that era was the additional ingredients on each mix...ie., dissing other djs, unique shoutouts, club shouts, vehicle shouts, contact info (telephone numbers, you won't hear website or email shouts) information on the next party, etc...Back to the top, he keeps this one real rugged, kicking off the b-side with a dark man x freestyle. The mic echo is definitely in effect a la CLUE Clue clue clue.

This side features (at the time new/exclusive) tracks and freestyles from DMX, 2Pac, Ghostface, Foxy Brown, K-Solo, Snoop. The A Side will be up when it's time.
