Essential EP release by the New York crew with Psycho Dwarf, No Equal and the banging World Famous just a few starting points. US first pressing in straight EX shape.

Club classic that will get most heads nodding. Two second playback and you know whats in store....

Rework The Angles is great but The Alchemist jam Guaranteed here offered as 12inch mix is the highlight to me on this '99 release. Top production and fine flows by Evidence and Rakaa. US original in strong VG+ shape.

Fair dues, Grand Puba's flow is special but Sadat X, Alamo and Lord Jamar still pulling weights as a trio. Diggin In The Crates production with Diamond D at the knobs. Strong EX condition cover and wax.

Spotless US original with the catchy Hold On making use of Simply Red's smash but rather flip it for Lord Jamar's fat beats and rhymes on Step Into Da Cipher, Classic joint. Top condition with cover in shrink.

Love this gem by the legendary Mount Vernon hip hop duo. Flipside has remix versions and instrumentals of T.R.O.Y. so a great 12inch pick. This is my own copy that has seen plenty of action in the field, hence the VG ...

Epic mix effort by Pete Rock with a result that I would put very high up the list of best remixes by Mr Phillips. Soulful and absolute on point. Hard to find US pressing with cover in shrink in EX shaped vinyl.

Chuck D, Flavor Flav and the rest of the PE crew landing another in-your-face banger from their Apocalypse 91 album. Love the Almighty Raw 125th Street Bootleg Mix. Dutch pressing in picture cover.

Notorious BIG kicking off a long list of MCs rhyming on beats by Easy Mo Bee and U-Neek including Redman, Buckshot, Busta Rhymes and Ill Al Skratch. Scrace 12inch pressing very rarely for sale. Top condition close to ...

Essential for the remix of Flava In Ya Ear with Busta Rhymes, LL Cool J, Rampage and Biggie dropping rhymes on Easy Mo Bee's beats. US original with soft lines, plays solid EX, cover in shrink.

Juicy is great and will get most crowds going but the deal maker here to me is Unbelievable with instrumental take flipside. Pretty sure it is only out as 12inch on this pressing. Significant DJ wear so downgraded but...

Essential New York gangsta anthem with Havoc and Prodigy laying down laws. A lot of talent to come out of the Queensbridge Projects during this time. US original in VG/VG+ condition, some wear to vinyl and cover but s...

Buckwild at the knobs with guest features of DMX and Ja Rule on the Time To Build flipside. US pressing in straight EX shape.

From a time when East Coast rap was untouchable you get two great sides with particular the Buckwild production Train Of Thought a highligt. US original with record in EX condition, cover with mild edge wear.

Anthony Cruz is such an underrated MC to me and perfectly showcased on Gimme Yours and Uncut Raw. He even got to drop bars on Nas's Illmatic which surely tesstament his qualities, US original in strongest EX plus plus...

Virginia rapper Mad Skillz with what I rate as two of his best tracks in Move Ya Body and Nod Factor. DJ Clark Kent producing. US original in superb condition and cover in shrink.

Great output with tracks from the Boston gangs second studio album Roxbury 02119. Scientifik gets down nicely on As Long As You Know but start with the smooth Love Comes And Goes lending from the Arthur Conley classic...

Rough sounding gangsta rap that fans of Cypress Hill will surely get down with. Pete Rock on the mix and although the Chocolate Boy Wonder is the remix master in my ears I went for the original version on the clip. US...

Prince Po and Pharoahe Monch representing Queens. The flipside with Numbers stand out to me but both sides are rocking. Graded the disc VG due to surface lines but play-grade is significantly better, check soundclip f...

Landmark launch by Pharoahe Monch that always gets the crowd going. Great remixes with guest flows by Roots Manuva, Method Man, Redman and Shabaam Sahdeeq. Disc with a handful of hairlines but play great, cover with l...
