| Dream Warriors - The Master Plan Posted: 15 Jan 2009 05:00 PM CST  I present you the 3rd album from Canadian Hip Hop Group Dream Warriors titled "The Master Plan". The Dream Warriors are mostly known for their first album "And Now The Legacy Begins". The album being one of the first jazz-influenced hip-hop release sold over 800,000 copies worldwide. They would follow up with their 1994 release Subliminal Simulation. The album received mixed reviews by music fans but was well-received by hip-hop fans with appearances by Gang Starr & Ishmael Butler of Digable Planets. The group then released The Master Plan in 1996, but it was largely ignored and most people don't even know of the album's existence. One of the reasons being that it was only available in Canada, nowhere else. It's my favorite release by the group though; if you like Da Bush Babees' Gravity from 1996, this is for you! Pure Hip Hop! 01 Fear None (Interlude) 02 The Era of 'Stay Real' 03 Here Today Gone Tomorrow 04 Sound Clash 05 The Master Plan 06 Float on 07 What Do You Want 'Ladies' 08 From the Beginning 09 Tset of Purity 10 Luvz History Lesson (Interlude) 11 Dem No Ready 12 Who's the Crook 13 First Ya Live 14 Times Are Changing 15 Sound Clash [Fattasly Extended Mix] Download -- Thomas V         |

| DJ Mike Nice "Cracking The Surface" Mixtape Posted: 15 Jan 2009 05:00 AM CST  Forum regular DJ Mike Nice has been more than a little generous to us. He recently linked us to a mixtape he recorded in '98/'99 that features freestyles from fifty emcee who were unsigned at the time. He says that he's the first DJ to put out a mixtape entirely populated by unsigned artists. I'm far from a historian on the matter, but I have no reason to doubt the man. The list is loaded with luminaries so download the tape and show respect for the architect for showcasing these artists before it was in vogue to do so.
