Second mashup of 2021! I blended "Don't See Us" by The Roots with "Drop" by The Pharcyde. An unmastered version of mashup originally appeared in volume 15 of my monthly mix series Spidey X, which is available on Mixcloud. Hope you enjoy!

Don't See Us Drop - Single

Don't See Us Drop (The Roots x The Pharcyde Mashup)

In 1997, Jay Dee was the still new kid on the block. With the success of singles like Runnin' (Pharcyde), and Stakes is High, he had his own undeniable sound, but the majors still weren't sold.
This is proof of that.  
Jay was solicited by a lot of majors to do remixes for artists on their rosters. Time and time again, they would go with someone else. 
The joints he was coming up with were fucking nuts, but to no avail. In one case, he was led to believe that one of his mixes got thru, only to see another producers remix when the 12" showed up at Record Time. 
I told him fuck it I wanna put it out.
I had never put a record out.
Got an investor. 
Then I made a phone call.
Chris Manak, aka Peanut Butter Wolf, was my rep at TRC distribution in California. I was working at Street Corner Music ordering records from him every week. I got the #'s 
from him. Sent the masters over and we had a record.
The first pressing was on blue vinyl. Limited to 1500 copies. 
Gone.
Second press was on green vinyl.
Gone.
I also learned to listen to test presses on multiple turntables.
There was a skip in the middle of the fucking Woo Hah rmx that did NOT SKIP on my 1200. Swear to god I had the onlt 12 that could play that shit. It skipped on EVERY other 1200 turntable in the world. Fucked up. Check your test pressings on a few setups. But, that's fixed now. These records go for $100 plus on the internets these days. 
Remastered by Dave Cooley directly from a sealed blue copy.
Why? Because the plates broke at the plant, and I lost the master in a flood 3 years later. That's why.


Enjoy the Gift...

We've taken the instrumentals from Real Live's 1996 underground classic 'The Turnaround' and got our blend on with some acapellas to give the album a new lease of life. As dope as the original album is, Larry O wasn't quite at the top level of New York rappers back then, but now you can hear the likes of Biggie, Kool G Rap, AZ, Raekwon, OC, Camp Lo and Lord Finesse do their thing over K-Def's beats.

Remake of "Nas Will Prevail" - one of tracks from Nas pre-illmatic demo from 1992. Its not avaible in even fair quality, so I decided to create a remake myself. The acapella is from "It Ain't Hard To Tell" - the track based on "Nas Will Prevail". Hope You enjoy this, PEACE!

The Pharcyde-Runnin' (Jay Dee Remix)

Sorcery is a superb collabo between 2 true school artists who have both have been making a name for themselves these last couple of years.

Ill Conscious is one of the hardest working rappers, touring, recording and dropping heat at a fast pace. Behind the boards we have MZ Boom Bap who has been killing the game with his vintage boom bap. 

Vinyldigital dropped the vinyl last year in December, but CD headz were left in the cold so I had to make something happen.

Only 300 copies pressed, cop it here while you can!
