Awesome.
Maestro, Kish, Dream Warriors… what a great time in CanCon history.
When the movie Coupe DeVille came out, Maestro Fresh Wes did a Louie Louie rap. I remember my friend had the 12″ and it was awesome. Does anyone remember this?
There’s a Ground Control 12″, On Break North Records I believe.
Pretty sure the MC Powerlord is real too. I’m going to put up some cool suprises this weekend.

Good looking out on the Ghetto Concept. I only got that on CD Single…got it when it came out. Love to see some HDV up on here. I should have my 12″ of “Pimp…” arriving shortly. U used to own it long time ago when it came out (thats how old school canadian I am, but would love to see the whole album if you have it. Maybe some Graphiti Logik, whatver happen to S.Blank from First Offense? I think that was his name.
Any way dope site. I rep am repping Sask Hip Hop so its nice to see other parts of Canuck on here.
Knowledgable Nubians from Toronto. I used to have a demo tape of theirs that was very tight. Don’t know if they ever had a release. You guys heard of them? Anyone out there know about this group? I’d appreciate some info.
wheres the bobby deemo at?
get loose crew!
this is off to a good start. def a ground control 12″. got one coming my way in july (thanks TSM!!!)… need the generic sleeve w/ the sticker though…
what about something with Cipher?
i got the cipher stuff on cassette, still haven’t tracked down a vinyl or cd version of it. anyone?

This is my new favourite website ever.
Shit like this is why the internet was invented.
intellect – sacred texts
monolith – the long awaited
saukrates – hate runs deep 12″
the telepathics – cassette sluts
i’ll see if i can think of more, since the posts have slowed down a little
terrific idea for a blog!! Canadian hiphop always have a big place in my heart.I don’t have a lot of canadian hiphop cd’s but I have a few classics so I’d love to up stuff if it was needed.
shoot me an email, let me know what stuff you’d like to up on here…. ryansomers at gmail dot com…
REQUEST!!!!
any dope mixtapes by Canadian DJ’s!!! old tape rips would be fine by me. anything pre-1997 would be helluva dope.
peace,
and good lookin’ out on the site!!!

michie mee – i got a few things, but who has the early, early early stuff?
kish – i don’t have it.
whitey don – i dont have it.
maestro – louie louie – i looked for it, i cna’t find it, i know i have it somwhere…
cipher – i have it on tape. anyone got mp3?

telephatics – never heard of it.
whew.
fritz tha cat..
Classified’s old shit (as in before “Unpredictable”) if fucking terrible … you don’t want to hear it, honestly. I think most of the other ones are pretty freely available.
What I’m saying that if there’s one you specifically want (and can’t easily find elsewhere) I’ll up it for you, mysterious stranger.
Where’s the prairie shit?
I request (demand!) the posting of some releases that are from a place between Vancouver and Toronto, but not Toronto or Vancouver. Or London.
And I mean the short way, no tricks. Not Vancouver to Toronto through Halifax. AB, SK, MB.
Fermented Reptile, Rezofficial, CF Crew type shit.
yeah, i have one or two of classified’s really early stuff, and i was never feeling it either. i havne’t heard his more recent stuff, except the odd video, which isn’t really my kind of tea. not to dis though, he’s doing his thing.
prairie stuff… is coming… early, early, early things, like, back from the cassette days, i don’t have, and i’m hoping somebody will up ’em for us. i do hae a lot of the p&c stuff from the late 90s/early 00s, so i’ll get that up as soon as i get around to it.
hahhaah, i love the request (demand!) hahahahaha
the thing is… if we want to get into the really interesting, early, regional stuff… well, that’s when we need help from people from those places… who have those early cassette releases of whatever was going on in their area at the time…
word…
Mmm, I have the Intellect-Thousand Sense and Intellect and Unik album, if you want me to send them to you or something I’m more than willing. I also have a shit load of Jeff Spec to accompany all that. Lemme know!
that would be awesome!
Alright, you might want to re-up this on the other page, and stuff, it expires in 7 days since I have no fancy accounts and such.
Intellect & Unik-Rappetite (1999)
http://www.yousendit.com/download/ZUcxTXRRNDRlM1EwTVE9PQ
Intellect is one of Jeff Spec’s alias’ and Unik Natural is Rob the Viking.
Jeff Spec on the raps and Unik on the beats.
just found the site, and you killin’ it! i’m looking for an old-ass Ghetto Concept song, i think it was “blind wit the science.” also any sebutones besides 50/50 where it counts, and sixtoo “songs i hate…”
much love in advance!
‘blind with hte science’ is by the rascalz (vancouver); we’ll get it up for you… i got some other sebs/sixtoo stuff on cassette, but i don’t have a way to rip ’em…
i’d love to get a copy of “maximum definitive – jungle man” if anyone’s got it.
k4orce would be dope too.
i’ve got the following cd’s in mp3 format and can be found on soulseek with the same screen name as here:
cipher – 360 degrees
graphidi logik – on a mission
top secret – it ain’t over
hdv – higher deeper values
kish – order from chaos & a nation of hoods
michie mee & la luv – jamaican funk canadian style
split personality – i don’t know
beat factory – rapessentials vol.1
ragga muffin rascals – really livin’ (original – before they dropped “ragga muffin” and changed their album cover to that dope graf bomb)
irs – welcome to planet irs
da grassroots – passage through time (also got that mr. roam solo ep somewhere – dope shit)
would love to find “hdv – sex & violence” (it’s got that weird hand drawn cover of hdv hanging on a cross)
if someone can re-up the “hip club groove” shit, that’d be dope.
thanks for bringin back the memories guys.
Looking for rascalz really livin with cd cover .
