From the Chopped Herring Records site:

"As seen on the recent Noisey profile of the new documentary (noisey.vice.com/blog/stretch-bobbito-doc), Stretch & Bobbito's show on Columbia University's radio station played a remarkably influential role in the 90s hip-hop scene. Many artists have expressed this sentiment through songs and interviews, but none have gone quite so far as the OG Aborigines. The group's debut album Rice Krispy Treats is a tribute to the golden years of Stretch & Bobbito's time on the air, and is a testament to the long- lasting appeal of the show. With modern rhymes over vintage sounding instrumentals, Squires (the producer) and Rapswell (the MC) conjure up the feel of the best moments at WKCR. The albums 11 tracks feature neck snapping beats reminiscent of the legendary songs that were played on the station: Large Professor, DJ Premier, Buckwild, and Q-Tip all lend inspiration to these tracks, but Squires has a style of his own. Rapswell is likewise an accomplished wordsmith, and the duo adds on to the top notch material they put out this past July when they dropped the PEN PALS project on Chopped Herring Records. Rice Krispy Treats is an album that will give longtime fans of Stretch & Bobbito a nostalgic kick, and give people just learning about them a chance to catch glimpses of the 89Tec9 experience, through the various audio clips strewn throughout the LP..."

Rice Krispy Treats [STRETCH & BOBBITO TRIBUTE]

Stretch Armstrong & BOBBITO  WKCR Radio Show 1995.05.26

Basically, I'm a child of 90's hip-hop. I always have been and always will be. Don't get me wrong, there's plenty of dope hip-hop on the market today (mainstream and underground), but to me, the eight-year period spanning from 1990 - 1998 was a hip-hop Renaissance that will probably never be duplicated. And DJ Stretch Armstrong and Bobbito Garcia (AKA Cool Bob Love, AKA DJ Cucumber Slice, AKA the ten thousand other nicknames this dude has) were probably two of the most influential people in the game at that time. I'm not gonna go into a long history regarding their show on WKCR, but from 1990 - 1998, during the hours of 1-5 AM every Thursday night / Friday morning, these two, for lack of a better term, "smashed the airwaves" of the New York metropolitan area. Their show was responsible for launching the careers of Nas, Mobb Deep, Big L, Jay-Z, Big Pun, Fat Joe, The Notorious B.I.G., A Tribe Called Quest, The Beatnuts, Black Moon, Redman, The Wu-Tang Clan, and the list goes on and on. Since I was too young during the show's heyday, I've had to feed my addiction for this show by scouring the internets for uploaded tapes from listeners from back in the day. What I did with this mix was try to showcase some of the joints that were spun on their show beginning in 1990 and ending in 1998. I compiled all the tracks to make it seem like you're listening to an actual taping of the show. All of these tracks were played on WKCR at least once (some more than others). I even threw in some of my favorite freestyles and exclusives, which were taken directly from old cassettes. I've got a ton of these old recordings, and it was really difficult to decide what to include/exclude, but hopefully, you'll get a sense of their legendary show and the evolution of classic hip-hop over a legendary eight-year period. Also, shout out to the good peoples at <a href="http://Philaflava.org" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Philaflava.org</a> for supplying me and the rest of the Stretch &amp; Bob fiends with hundreds of old tapes. Turn that shit up....

Note: I let some of the freestyles run for an extended period since some of them are just too legendary to cut short.

Stretch Armstrong & Bobbito Garcia Show On WKCR 89.9 Side A Mix

Prior to their appearance at the New Museum, Stretch Armstrong and Bobbito did a "one-time" only pop up show on their original time slot,day and station 89.9 WKCR FM NYC. Do not try this at home without proper Hip-Hop supervision. A taste of the Cadberry goes out to Madam Superior. 

The Stretch Armstrong Show hosted by Bobbito special POP-UP show 02.22.13

After digging through tapes of freestyles and music from the Stretch Armstrong Show hosted by Bobbito, I found this GEM.. Listeners of the show will remember this as crunch-time, a period of approximately 30 minutes at the end of many shows where phone calls were accepted live on the air. Crunch-time wasn't the official segment name until about 1996. This may be one of the greatest phone call sessions ever! Enjoy. Shouts to Stretch Armstrong, Bobbito, Sear, and Dj Eli Escobar! A MUST LISTEN!!
