Ultramagnetic MC’s- Give The Drummer Some: Where do I begin?Ultra we’re and are the single most under rated and seminal rap group of all time, only Organized Konfusion sits in a similar place. Coincidently they both worked with the incredibly talented producer/Engineer Paul C. Critical Beatdown is just one of the most amazingly creative and banging golden era records ever made. Kool Keith was one of the first avant-garde rappers(Maybe the first was Rammellzee?) with his abstract lyrics and off beat on beat flow, he was 100 pct original, and Ced Gee and the crew had a bag of slap for that ass. I seriously studied that album and this song ad nauseam. When I first heard this record I couldn’t understand how Paul C got the drums naked from the Dee Felice There Was a Time joint (Later to be used by Cypress Hill for Insane in the Membrane and Chub Rock amongst others). Talk about chopping up samples man. The sonics on this song are just unreal, the layering futuristic and the rhymes light years ahead of its time. Sometimes artists are just too far ahead of the curve and go over all but the most informed and expansive of music fans. I like to believe this is Ultra Magnetics legacy. Too forward thinking for the masses, to futuristic if you will, still in NYC this and Funky, EaseBack and Ego Tripping pt 2 were all club bangers. They might have been the quintessential LQ artists. When there jams came on at the Quarters you might get your chain snatched or get punched in your mug just because. Critical Beatdown indeed. All praise due to Ultra and my friend the late great Paul McKasty aka Paul C who was taken from us way to early in life🙏🏼 #UltraMagnetic #PaulC #1212 -#LatinQuarters #SuperDiscoBreakin #LittleRecords (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEr9HaTAKNR/?igshid=m1bo8ys3w6g0

Big Daddy Kane Raw: When this dropped people lost there collective minds. I remember being at the world nightclub with Faith Newman when we heard this for the first time and both of our jaws dropping. This Marley produced banger featured Kane in top form and was one of the many reasons we all considered him one of he greatest MCs of the Golden Era. This James Brown sampling no less than 6 James performed or Produced jams including Get On The Good Good, Hot Pants Road, Escapism and Mama Feel Good plus the tambourine from Think with a little Funky Drummer Snare this one with its uptempo feel and noisey backdrop rivaled Public Enemy in terms of sheer sonic aggression. @bigdaddykaneofficial ‘s lyrical dexterity was unparalleled and unique, his rhyme patterns all his own and soon would be emulated by a slew of lesser MCs. His stage show was unreal , the closest thing to what I imagined James Brown in his prime was like. He did splits, he spit rapid fire rhymes and had Scoob Mad Scrap Luva possibly the best back round dancers of all time by his side. He also looked cool as hell. He epitomized what a rap star was back in the day and had that Brooklyn swag that was unlike any other. One of the all time greats and a cool cat to boot. Keep it 100 we all wanted to be like Kane, he was that Fly. He and Marley had a wonderful run, he is still in my top 5 always will be and this repress is a find had to cop two catch me practicing my doubles routine on these next Saturday at Soho House West Hollywood as we retur eirh another #SuperDiscoBreakin’ throwdown! #GoldenEra #JuiceCrew #ColdChillin #LatinQuarters (at Los Angeles, California)
