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.
Enjoy a moment from Neek The Exotic and Large Professor's history as a duo in a 1999 appearance on Bobbito's CMFamalam show. Neek and Large join associate Royal Flush to tear down the mic Queens style during he release of Neek's "Backs 'N Necks" EP. The freestyle begins around the 1.05.00 mark.
This moment is also special since it is the show where they first recognize and commemorate the recent passing of Big L. Enjoy this collectors item of New York Hip Hop! Other guests on this 4 hour episode include Prince Paul and Akrobatik.
Don't miss the "Comin' In Piles" EP as well, released on Ill Adrenaline Records with songs which are unavailable on "Hustle Don't Stop".
What starts out as a normal radio interview quickly unfolds into hilarious moments of spontaneous rhyme busting mixed with snapping on callers and each other inside the studio. Bob and Sear definitely know how to make a radio episode memorable and bring about a fun-filled high school lunchroom vibe to Common's interview.

Remember this tight 12" with Just Ice & Kane produced by Premier from 2002? On this episode of Bobbito & Lord Sear's CMFamalam show, Just Ice, DJ Premier & Mike G Of The Jungle Brothers visit the studio to promote their collaboration on wax and join in some fun times for the WKCR tradition of beats, rhymes and comedy. I don't know which part of this tape I like better, the furious freestyle session of Just & Mike G over the Militia beat or the hilarious diss session that pops off at the end with Sear..
