Sorry about the lack of posts. I am finally done doing my best Carmen San Diego impersonation so the posts will be coming much more frequently. So all five people that occasional glance at the blog get ready.
Hip Hop like most other forms of media are quick to forget that there are more market places than just New York and Los Angeles. But don't fool yourself, classic hip hop comes from all over. That's why I was geeked to find a couple golden era tracks from the Mile High City. All three of these gems are from '94-'97. For those who are unfamiliar with Denver Rap it's a lot like Ganstga Rap from California except with a lot more Avalanche jerseys. The ragtops, glocks, and 40 oz's remain the same. My favorite out of the three tracks would have to be "12 Guage Tragedy" by DK All Day, mainly because of the not so subtle diss of DJ Quik. The verse was a reference to DJ Quik's "Jus Lyke Compton" and a verse that describes a dispute that went down in a roller rink in Denver. Schenectadyfan, another blogger has compiled a 19 track gold mine of 90's hip hop from Dener, Las Vegas, and even Albuquerque (big ups to bennet). Hope you enjoy.
