Funkmaster Flex Vol 4 Zip Hipster
Although he's flying way off the radar these days, DJ Self was another NY based tape maker that doled out some pretty worthwhile material in the 90's. Now he's pretty much doin the radio thing and DJing parties and clubs, but when he was doin his thing in the 90's he came extra correct and made his mark. The Lox Family Pt.1 is definitely a standout Lox and Bad Boy tape, and that says a lot in itself considering that there are some other classic Bad Boy mixes floating around (See the Doo Wop Bad Boy mixtape) that command a true collector's attention. Featuring plenty of very recognizable Bad Boy classics like 'Can't Hold Me Down' featuring Mase and Puff and 'Niggas Done Started Something' featuring X, Mase and The Lox, this will appease the cats that just wanna hear the vintage Bad Boy shit. The true highlight of this joint are to me, the freestyles. I'm a huge freestyle fanatic man; I don't care if it was on a radio station, a mixtape or whatever, I love diggin up old, vintage freestyles.
Pains me to see that part of the art form start to fade. Today you got kids jumping on other peoples corny beats and reciting a written verse and then trying to call it a 'freestyle'. SMH, really a shame man.these new kids just don't get it. But I digress.tons of freestyles on this joint that will really catch your attention specifically those from a budding young hip-hop executive named Sean Combs AKA Puffy, lol.
