Usually I don't post full LP rips here (at least only compilations), I post this one and maybe it will be the first and last one... Don't sleep on this !
The group comes from Long Island, NY. Composed by Dino Brave, Laku, Mic Raw and Rock Marcy ( aka Roc Marciano ) who was former Flipmode Squad member.
Looks like they're close with Pete Rock and the less that we can say it's that he gave them ill beats, no doubt that it was one of the best that came out in 2004 ! It contain tracks that were already released by Archives Inc Records (check the other posts for almost all their releases) but reworked properly. Straight raw east coast shit !
