Dear List: Those of you who read Urb have no doubt seen
ads various Rawkus releases in particular the group Company Flow".
Moreover various of thier 12" have been favorably reviewed in the mag.
(I cannot remmber if the Source has done any reviews or run ads-the
latter not being THIER choice) Well im here to saythat based on The
MIxTape/omp soundbombng mixed by he Beatminerz evil Dee BELIEVE the
Hype. "Sounbombing" is an in-house of all of Rawkus 12". It has
excellent sound and even has that reverb you find on alot of
mixtapes.PLUS SCRATCHES , INTROS, SHOUT OUT ETC. This is very good
and very trip hoppy at times. The raps are braggadocious or
conscious. And over all is good. When i downloaded some COMPanY Flow RA
samples at the wall of Sound site (www.mrShowbiz.com) Iwas not all that
impressed. "Oh they use big wordz like Organized Confusion -yeah yeah"
but their contribution here was a standout." Rawkus has a site to by
vinyl and things but no Ra samples. Get The Tape then if you ike buy the
vinyl from Rawkus or sandlot. The Tape is sold at any store as it is a
legit release a la Funkmaster Flex's 2 Loud records releases. By the
way i have ORGANIZED Confusion tracks on a Priority pPromo "numbers"
and"somehow Someway' they also fit the format of this list : no
gangbanging east coast style production. They are very good i will
now have to consider buying the album an tracking down Numbers on vinyl
afte having passed it up earlier this winter.
