Madlocks - Nothing To Lose Much To Gain (Beatfactory, 1999)

Post by Debonair_P »

I know at least a couple people here were looking for this obscure Canadian CD-only release... I finally found a cheap copy on eBay so here it is:

http://www.multiupload.com/9RF2YD4VHT

The album isn't as good as some of Beatfactory's other releases (Mathematik's Ecology, Rap Essentials compilations etc) but it still has its moments.

Tracklist:

1. Intro
2. Visions
3. Snake Eyes
4. Da Executives
5. Mr. Chin
6. Interlude
7. Verbal Assaultors
8. 8 Million Stories
9. Planet 2 Planet
10. One 4 The World
11. Interlude
12. Da Finest
13. No Love
14. Fast Lane
15. Da Terrible
16. Interlude
17. U.N.I.T.
18. Silent Nights
19. Hectic
20. Gusto
21. Outro
22. Bonus Track - In My Life

:cheers:

If your a fan of Canadian Hip Hop and have an hour to spare check out Andrew Munger's 1994 Toronto Hip Hop Documentary called Make Some Noise.

http://rekordzonwheelz.blogspot.com/201 ... -1994.html

Here is the press release;

The 1994 film follows then up-and-coming Toronto rap groups like Ghetto Concept, Nu Black Nation and MVP, creating what now stands as a wonderful time-capsule peek into Toronto's 90's hip hop community. The film also features interviews with some of the big players in Toronto's rap scene like Johnbronski, DJX, a pre-Canadian Idol Farley Flex and a whole bunch more.

Despite being a big success at the 1994 Toronto International Film Festival (the film was awarded Best Canadian Short), Make Some Noise never received major distribution and until now, remained buried in Canadian rap history. With Kardinal Offishall's Toronto Anthem blowing up Canadian urban radio, the recent 'happenings' over at CKLN (the campus radio station is prominently featured in the film) and it being Black history month, this is a great time to blow the dust off this Toronto hip hop classic."

No problem guys, happy to help.

That video looks good Andyman, thanks for the link.

Filthy Rich, I saw a copy of the single in a store in Toronto (Play De Record maybe?) when I was passing through on vacation last year but didn't pick it up - it may still be there!
