T.R.O.Y. just raped your iPods
The TROY Blog Presents: 100 Forgotten Favorites
[quote]
A few years back, a team of nine rap fans associated with the TROY forum at Philaflava.com and The TROY Blog assembled a compilation of 100 obscure rap songs from the past that we felt deserved to be recognized and remembered. We caught some flak from hardcore ebay collectors for the word גobscureג but years later our claim is vindicated because even the better known songs from that list are rarely mentioned. Today in 2011 three members of the original team גThun, Philaflava and Magnetoג have assembled a new list, which we call Forgotten Favorites. We picked 100 songs, mostly from the late ג80s through the late ג90s, that are too good to dissipate into the void of the internet, tracked down the highest quality mp3s for your listening pleasure (big up to the folks in the forum who helped us with that), and assembled them into a compilation that we will unveil in four parts of 25 songs each. Dirt_Dog provided the cover art to make the whole affair as iPod-friendly as possible. Blast this at a high volume wherever you go, thereגs something for everybody, from classic singles that nobody bumps anymore to vinyl-only b-sides and album cuts that got overlooked to demos and unreleased tracks that were unearthed only recently.
Part II of IV coming shortly ג enjoy Part I of IV over the weekend. You can find download links, the track list, and detailed liner notes after the jump. Read the rest of this entry
