Video: Dig Of The Day: Funkmaster Wizard Wiz – I Ain’t Wid Dat (1988)

Oldschool treat today! We have a rugged VHS rip of a slept-on ’88 joint shot at the famous Delaney Homes Projects in Perth Amboy, NJ. Hailin’ from the Bronx, Funkmaster Wizard Wiz be on some OG shit, releasing only one solo album in 1986 and a handful of singles under Funkmaster, Optimist Prime and Eric Lockett aliases.

As I found, his earliest release was in 1982 with D.J. Magic Ray and the Undefeated Three group, and his latest in 2019. The joint you’re listening to, I Ain’t Wid Dat, was released on I Ain’t Wid Dat / Grand Concourse & 138th 12″ in 1988 as a single for NY’s Tuff City label.
