Diggin In The Crates (Bad Boy Edition)!! *insert Puffy adlib here*

So this is going to be my new column every Friday, "Diggin In The Crates" where I will bring to you a classic mixtape that is hard to obtain or near impossible to find every week.


This week, I bring to you a mixtape which is def. a personal favorite of mine, back in 1996, when 2pac released "Hit Em Up", most Hip Hop fans think the Bad Boy camp stayed silent but what they dont know is that Puffy did retaliate back with a mixtape diss to Pac which is on the intro of this mixtape where Puffy humiliates 2pac by laughing over his song "Hit Em Up" and making comments towards his fuck yous at them (Puffy, Biggie, and Bad Boy). So I bring to you....

Puff Daddy and DJ S&S's Bad Boy Mixtape Vol. 4 (Stop Yappin Niggaz) circa 1996.

P.S. Be sure to check out the RARE Lox, Black Rob, and last but certainly not least, Biggie (!!) freestyles also included on this tape!!!

Its Been A Long Time.....(You know the rest....)

I know, I know. What was I thinking starting a blog that I never kept up with? Well, I'm back and in full effect. So, expect the usual from me except this time around, I am going to be hitting you with a least 3-4 updates a week. Giving you the latest in whats hot, whats new, things from the past you might have missed, all that good shit that makes you love Hip Hop.

So without further adue, I gotta hit you with something new that was just leaked on the internet today by Mick Boogie himself:


Honestly, this mixtape kind of came out of nowhere like I had heard "Step Up" over the weekend and that it was gonna be on a Mick Boogie mixtape paying tribute to Dilla called "Dillagence" but I didn't know Busta was doing a whole entire mixtape over Dilla beats. (NO BLENDS!!!) Thats just plain insanity cause all of us know that Busta Rhymes is Dilla's best collaborator next to Common. A lot of classic stuff on here. Its a must!!!!

Note to Mick Boogie (following tonight's Celtics/Cav's game) : Don't worry, We'll be getting that last laugh! BELIEVE THAT!!!




In other mixtape news, here's something else that came out of nowhere. A Marsha Ambrosius mixtape over all classic Dr. Dre beats?!? SAY WORD!! For those who aren't familiar with Marsha, she was 1/2 of the group Floetry and is currently signed as a solo artist to Dre's Aftermath imprint. If you don't know her from Floetry, then you might know her from singing on some of your favorite MC's tracks like: Styles P's "I'm Black", The Game's "Start From Scratch" and "Why You Hate The Game", Nas's "Hustlers" (feat. The Game), Busta Rhymes "Cocaina" and "Get You Some". Most recently, you can hear her on Alicia Keys new album on the song "Go Ahead", Freeway's new album on the song "This Cant Be Real" and last but not least on the amazing "Art Of Storytelling Pt. 4" by Outkast on DJ Drama's album....So if your not familiar by now, as Clinton Sparks would say....GET FAMILIAR!!!
