Cypress Hill 'Cypress Hill' 25th Anniversary Mixtape mixed by DJ Matman

Rest in Power Malik Isaac Taylor aka Phife Dawg, Nov 20 1970- March 23 2016.

This is a super rare recording of one of Quest's last shows together on UK soil. The improvisation, live beat-making and freestyles are just amazing, really representing the golden era of this genre. The outstanding documentary 'Beats Rhymes & Life - Travels of a tribe called Quest reminded us of the genius but to hear a full live show with all the classics is something else...

 Abstract radio just featured this recording on the special tribute show...I'm humbled. Thanks for the memories Phife, see you next lifetime. https://www.mixcloud.com/QRIP/q-tip-abstract-radio-beats-1-20160325/http://www.flipthescriptbook.com

A Tribe called Quest 'Midnight Marauders' live Subterania 2.12.94 London UK

Bringing out the big guns for you lucky people, here's a truly essential piece of late 90s hip-hop history. 
A selection of classic Rawkus cuts expertly put together by the Beat Junkies... I really can't recommend this one enough. Have to give a special mention to J.Rocc and Babu - as good as the tracks are throughout, the mixing just elevates it to another level. Absolutely on point.
