From one die-hard MC to another, Apathy and Diabolic go back and forth on IG Live with some of their favorite Hip Hop memories. If you experienced underground Hip Hop from the late 90's into the 2000's and was amazed by the emergence of Canibus, you'll enjoy this talk. Below, Canibus spits fire with Pacman on Westwood Radio.
Canibus is the most dedicated Hip Hop lyrical patron, bustin' on Hot 97's frequency modulation for the year 2000. Listen as this Hip Hop phenomenon gets ill, promoting his second LP with rhymes that leave DJ Clue in amazement. I took a dip back in my tape collection to find this gem for you, recorded off FM radio in NYC. It was a period where physical mixtapes and CD reigned supreme on the streets, and the bar for lyrical skills remained at a high.
This week on The Library with Tim Einenkel, artist, Mikey D. The Queens, NY Legend, has released a new album—Day Of D'struction. Tim talks with MIKEY D about the album, developing his own style, battling, and how Chuck D, Grand Daddy I.U and LL have played important roles in his life.

Feel the rush of a lyrical narcotic as these great MCs offer a posse cut to leave you addicted to the rhyme. Canibus, Kool G Rap, Papoose, UniqMe and Justin Tyme step in the booth lyrically equipped with firearms on "Iron Bars". French producer Astronote delivers the drama for each MC to get busy on a track designed to pump your adrenaline like drugs.
This German producer provides quality sounds of Hip Hop in collaborating with the emerging and established of the underground to spit over his inventive ideas of progressive boom-bap. Shuko's Foundation Vol. 2 mixed by Snowgooons and hosted by DJ Green Lantern features Talib Kweli, Vinnie Paz, Heltah Skeltah, Keith Murray, Canibus, Ill Bill, The Clipse, Ras Kass, Avius, Doujah Raze and more. Whatever composition comes from Shuko's drum machine it is bound to be something to move you and pack a strong dose of emotion, in addition to being a good fit for the MC who chooses to use his music.

This trailer is a slick combination between great new music to expect from C of Traquility and cinematography from Canibus' older videos during his debut. If you're a fan of Bis from the days of mixtapes and Second Round K.O. I'm sure this trailer will bring back some good memories of Hip Hop at the time.

Canibus sounds lyrically ill on this this new song from "C Of Tranquility" with powerful aggression that is bound to make Bis fans ears open to his new attitude. Produced by "The ARE" from Texas, who's been making a steady climb towards more recognition as a producer. Go back and check for his beattapes and other collaborations if you haven't already, I think he'll be someone to keep you're ear out for in the future.
I find this interview one of the most interesting out of their collection from the growth Canibus shows as a person, he breaks down many aspects of the hip hop industry in an interesting way as it relates to life. I was surprised to hear him express regret of highly publicized battles he had with other MCs in the past which he believes started a negative beef trend followed by others solely for financial gain.
If you are a fan of Canibus from back in the late 90's up until now, this will give you an idea of where he's currently at as an artist, also what he's taken from the past toward a better future.
