4 years after the first upload of the Bedouins original tape on Til.Infinity Blog by my man Etienne, an official vinyl treatment is now available with the help of Back2DaSource Records. The Bedouin (formerly Bedouins) is a group from San Jose, California comprised of Beatmaker Tape Mastah Steph and two Emcees : The Gill Brothers, Mozam & K Swift.
"With their early / mid 90s project called "The Missing Link" which is a long EP (or can be considered as an album, officially called Mini Album because it has more than 6 tracks - 7 to be exact - but it's a bit under 30 mins length), they bring us some True Words of Wisdom.
This is an incredible Spiritual release that we had to put out before the end of times, it's the final call. This project is 100% prophetic ! I'll ask you to pay attention to the lyrics please.
The Missing Link EP/ mini album was only pressed on tape format in 1998 (self released) a few years after the tracks had been recorded, the title "Missing Link" says it all.
I'm sure most of you, my Brothers & Sisters, had never heard about this album before, yet this cassette is highly sought by the Hip Hop tape collectors on discogs, however it has never been sold. Very hard to find tape, it's a real hidden Gem, Holy Grail !
I hope you are ready because this release is far from the average Christian rap you could find out there (just listen to the first track and you will understand why) It goes very deep, and needless to say that those Souls are Godsends.
The productions by Tape Mastah Steph are supa DOPE, they bring a special vibes to the whole album. By the way, all the tracks were recorded between 1993 and 1995." - courtesy of Back2DaSource Records
