"This show we interviewed Big L R.I.P. and The Cella Dwellas! We started the show with Riz on the 1's and 2's! I'm on the air getting ready to interview Big L who was waiting to go on the air!! Tyesh Harris from Columbia Records was at the station that night with Big L to promote his hot joint "Put It On" f. Kid Capri! I'm on the mic letting the listeners know that Biggie Smalls was here!! You can hear Tyesh and B Wise saying "it's Big L"! I corrected the mistake and then interviewed Big L!
Big L was cool about waiting for the interview and the problem with the mic while he was freestyling! He was able to do a short freestyle and was professional about everything! The Cella Dwellas came on next and they mentioned that they knew Riz from playing High School football in Brooklyn! They also played against Masta Ace and so did Riz!! Riz was a star player from Canarsie and went to play football at Hofstra U. We had a good time doing our Jerky Boys impressions and bugging out!!" - Wildman Steve
Late 90's flavor from one of Croatia's most renowned Hip Hop media outlets. Enjoy full sets of live performances and some interviews from American Hip Hop royalty!
Choosing one of the happier songs on a debut album packed with anger and aggression, George Fields lends a joyful sound of boom-bap to his remix of Big L's "MVP". Get loose and let ya hands clap to this nostalgic sound of 90's Hip Hop as thumping drums carry soulful sound in George's cool re-arrangement of the Bill Withers classic "Just The Two Of Us".
"BigLOnline is proud to present this exclusive playlist of Big L & O.C. Live at the Subterranea club in London. Part of the November 1997 tour for O.C.'s 'Jewelz' album.
All credit goes to 'The Champ' over at BigLOnline forums for providing the footage.
This is the second full concert footage to exist, after the Croatian footage that dropped a couple years back and the Live in Amsterdam (with A.G. from October 8th, 1998) audio that dropped back in 2003. It's from O.C.'s Jewelz tour featuring Big L from at least November 11th, 1997 through the end of the month." - TheBigSleep of PhilaFlava forums

Neek The Exotic is back to break backs 'n necks, presenting true-to-life visions of the ghetto with an aggressive rhyme flow on his 2013 solo LP "Hustle Don't Stop". Neek The Exotic first stepped on the scene in 1992 with a dope verse on Main Source's classic joint "Fakin' The Funk" and continued dropping underground gems since then, always backed by Large Professor on the vocals and/or beats. The longtime-friends collaboration series was highlighted by their critically acclaimed and Fat Beats released album "Still On The Hustle". Neek The Exotic decided to step out of Large Pro's continuously following shadow and work on a release without any help from his extraordinary beat-making/rapping partner.
20 tracks strong, "Hustle Don't Stop" contains the underground smash hits "Get The City Warm" featuring Bumpy Knuckles & Satchel Page and "Real Deal Hip-Hop" feat. DJ JS-1. The album features production mainly handled by Confidence (of Rashad/Purpose & Confidence) and The Audible Doctor as well as Alterbeats, Tommy Tee, Ras Beats, The Arcitype, Big Malk, Weirdo (of Crazeology) and DJ Hachi. Guest appearances include Large Professor, O.C. (of D.I.T.C.), Bumpy Knuckles, Sadat X, DJ JS-1, B-1, Mikey D, Satchel Page, Mic Handz, Father D, and Mayhem Lauren.
Check out snippets from the album at iTunes, "Hustle Don't Stop" is also available at Undergroundhiphop.com.
