This mix came about after a drunken Sunday afternoon last year raiding all our old Hip Hop albums.
Won’t be to everyone’s taste, but all the Hip Hop heads should find something they like on there.
It’s two hours long but could easily have been double that.

Had my head nodding from the first track. Maybe a bit one-paced to listen to all in one go but a fine collection nonetheless – and Lyin King is an awesome tune. Great cover too. Just one question, I know what 40s and phillies are but what are tims and hellies?
It is a bit of a slug to listen to in one hit, but I couldn’t stop adding tracks that kept popping up in my head, maybe it would’ve been good to do it in two one hour parts.
As for Tims and Hellies. Timberland Boots and Helly Hansen Jackets! The clothing attire of 90’s Hip Hop. (As well as Tommy Hilfiger)
Benchmark – 40s, Phillies, Tims And Hellies
