Demo Battle part 2
Back by semi-popular demand!
Itגs been a while since Iגve gone thru my own tapes. These two demos feature cats who gained fame later on. They werenגt part of any real competition but I thought Iגd pair them up since theyגre both from roughly the same period. Also, it's a more interesting way to put these out there without resorting to the Demos/Rarities thread again.
Demo #1

Big Ill The Mack- גGet Paidג
http://www.divshare.com/download/12250626-ffb
This is from a Stretch show from 93. Heגs in his hardcore phase, sandwiched between his stint in the group W.I.Z.E.Guyz and Ill Al Skratch. Also around the same period where he dissed Kane at his own b-day party.
Demo #2

Renaissance- Shine The Spotlight
http://www.divshare.com/download/12250590-af4
I recorded this one from WNYU (Mayhem?) in 94. Heads should recognize the second emcee, who got some shine years later as an associate of Little Brother.
Who takes it?

Renaissance for me. "Say Mama" was a dope track but the version that got played on Halftime Show never came out. I hit Spectac up some time ago and he was kind enough to send me the unreleased "Say Mama" mixes. A good guy. If any one wants em hit me up.
Just a single and LP. Here's the LP, titled "eF yoU eN Kay E" (1989). It's missing an intro and interlude.Bigg Boss Luciano wrote:Did W.I.Z.E.Guyz released anythin'? And what's the story behind that diss?

W.I.S.E. Guyz- Big Ill (The Mack)
As for the dis, I never heard that there was any particular beef between Kane and Big Ill. I always assumed that Ill was a young turk wanting to make his mark by taking on a legend and at that time Kane was an easy target. (If anyone knows if there was an actual beef, pls educate)
Beginning at around 1990, Kane noticeably started changing his image from an emceeגs emcee to a lover man. For those that remember, he started modeling himself after Prince (by wearing purple) and Barry White. Even his so-called battle rhymes became increasingly corny (ex. גI could fart on a record and make it sound goodג) and his fans knew it. (Iגm not even gonna go into Playgirl and Madonna.) One can say it was a dis rhyme waiting to happen and Kane was wearing the גkick meג sign.
For those who haven't heard it, here's the entire Kane b-day bash feat. a host of emcees with an obviously hungry Big Ill rhyming on the last two minutes. http://www.mediafire.com/?4mcc87gxbz832pe
Yeah, that'd be good. I always liked Spectac. Do you have this one:RELM wrote:"Say Mama" was a dope track but the version that got played on Halftime Show never came out.

A couple of the cats from W.I.S.E. Guyz were part of Ten Thieves. Not sure which ones though.

W.I.S.E. Guyz- Big Ill (The Mack)
Oh, yeah I saw that album but the front cover was lookin' mad corny so I'd never bothered checkin' it out... Lol, I just checked discogs and it says that Big Ill was a member... I would never thought that it is the same Big Ill if you haven't told me... He switched his style 180
Voting option added.
Great post, aleph! I gotta really give both these songs a fair listen and I'll come back to vote. I'm also a sucker for the Montara sample, especially when it's older like this.

Upon further deliberations, I'm gonna go with Big Ill the Mack. That hook really pushed it to get my vote when I was undecided.
