DJ Eclipse<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

So mad I missed the very beginning of this show as my tape starts in the middle of Melle Mel<\/strong>‘s freestyle just before he passes it to his brother Kidd Creole<\/strong> while Flash<\/strong> cuts up the beat. Luckily I didn’t miss any of the Force MD<\/strong>‘s appearance (2:36) as they totally obliterate the mics. Sad to think at how downhill R&B has gone since brothers like these were on the scene. No autotune needed here. <\/p>\n

Then at 12:48 the calls start coming in for people to rhyme with the first being Flash<\/strong>‘s son Jo Jo<\/strong> followed by many other callers. A few in house appearances by female MC The Original<\/strong> (16:35), Breez Evahflowin<\/strong>‘ (18:43) and M.O.P.<\/strong> (30:45) doing a live version of How About Some Hardcore<\/em>. Force MD<\/strong>‘s show up again at the end to cap things off (35:28), but the final words go to Melle Mel<\/strong> with a rhyme recap (38:22). Shout out to Scorpio<\/strong>, Rahiem<\/strong> and Larry Love<\/strong> all in the place as well.<\/p>\n
