For the 30th born day of "The Sun Rises In The East", Jeru drops an expanded version of his debut. This version has some bonus material added, making his classic even more robust and enjoyable.
I went into my archive of Halftime radio shows and picked out all the ones where they made it a crate digging show by dropping breaks, samples and classic Hip Hop. Every now and then, DJ Eclipse would depart from the normal show format of new Hip Hop and guests to focus on the classics. This set is a tribute to those special crate digging episodes of The Halftime Show. Featuring Easy Mo Bee, Martin Moore & Mayhem, Wise Intelligent, Evil Dee, Emskee, 88-Keys, John Robinson, James Top and The Awesome Two.
The ruler on the mix of EPMD and the Last Boyscout of Busta Rhymes' Flipmode Squad visit one of New York's best underground Hip Hop shows of the 90's. Martin Moore & Mayhem's "New York Live" radio remains underrated for their contribution to Hip Hop radio and the duo offer many memorable moments for us to enjoy.

The latest project by EPMD "Live Business" available now.
The RZArector and The Gatekeeper display a level of depth that still remains intriguing and ahead of it's time in this mid-90's rhyme session. Representing The Gravediggaz during the release of their classic debut "6 Feet Deep", RZA and Frukwan awaken the mind with insight, spirituality and visual storytelling up at WNYU FM radio.
Record Store Day edition of "6 Feet Deep" by The Gravediggaz now available here at TTL.
Revisit a bunch of Hip Hop gems from 2010 selected by DJ Eclipse and DJ Skizz, in addition to interviews from emerging leaders and legendary figures of the culture. With producers like Marco Polo, Oddisse, !llmind and Audible Doctor on the rise, this was a good year if you looked in the right places online for Hip Hop. Many gems might have missed the average listener since this was right around when brick and mortar record stores were closing left and right. What was left was the blogs and online record shops, leaving the world new work to re-adjust our approach to music consumption.
For your listening pleasure, I've extracted mp3s from the available 2010 shows from the show archive. Enjoy the August to December episodes of The Halftime Show, direct from NYU's website. Stream using the media player or right-click and download each episode below.
A short taste of the rawness which is in store as longtime collaborators Willie Stubz and Psycho Les of The Beatnuts return in 2017 with an interlude from Willie's forthcoming "Creators of The Lost ART" project. Catch one of Hip Hop's most outspoken pimps on a massive 2016 posse cut dedicated to the borough of Queens below.
It's been almost 20 years since the two Queens representatives came together with Cuban Link for "Pimpin'" and still remain raw in their approach to Hip Hop. Enjoy and check out Willie as a guest along with A Tribe Called Quest on a '98 episode of the great Halftime Hip Hop radio show.
