Here is another Stretch & Bobbito Show coming from my hard drive disk... I think it could be the second part of the show from August 1992 blogged previously, with King Sun & Fat Joe who were still in the studio. But not sure because this second part contains some Double XX Posse joints which were already played in the previous part, but I know that it happened sometimes that Stretch played the same song twice in the same show. A few short talk breaks but they're all cut unfortunately.

Legendary London-based MC/Producer Funky DL is back with a brand new 6-Track EP entitled "Enharmonia".
" Funky DL returns with "Enharmonia", a project that bridges the past and present, delivering a sound that’s as nostalgic as it is refreshingly new. DL brings his unique sound, taking the listener on a journey of silky jazz samples, boom-bap beats, and modern hip-hop sensibilities.
The project explores themes of unity, identity, and the human experience, all while keeping heads nodding and speakers pounding. The name Enharmonia plays on the musical term “enharmonic”- where two notes sound identical but are technically different. It’s a powerful metaphor for our shared humanity: we may come from different walks of life, but at our core, we feel the same emotions, fight the same battles, and chase the same dreams.
From the unifying anthem, "Just One or Two," to the sharp social commentary of "Artificial Intelligence," this project is packed with depth, energy, and boom-bap groove. Whether you’re a longtime Funky DL fan or a first-time listener, Enharmonia is here to pull you in, make you think, and keep you vibing. " courtesy of Funky DL's Bandcamp.
Here is something coming from my hard drive disk... a Stretch Armstrong & Bobbito show from 1992. No info about the date unfortunately but I think it was aired in August because Stretch played 3 tracks from the album "Put Ya Boots On" which was released by the group Double XX Posse on August 11th 1992 via Big Beat Records. Same thing for the Brand New Heavies album which was dropped around August 3rd. Just two short talk breaks, one of them with technical difficulties at the end of the second part followed by a freestyle session with King Sun & Fat Joe.

" DJ Grazzhoppa and Smimooz put out the very first Solid vs Green album back in 1998. Their self-titled debut focused strictly on showcasing their dope beatmaking skills and turntablism. They followed it up with the "Operation Molotov" EP in 2001 and then finally "Solid Gold" in 2012 which was a remix album.
Now in 2025 we are very proud to present you a new Solid vs Green project that has been in the making for several years. Solid vs Green teamed up with the Baltimore crew "Animal Gang" and this 7-headed outfit will surely ring bells with many. Members include Jamil Honesty, Don Streat, Cayoz, Unreal, Jigsaw, Mic Handz and last but not least Senica Da Misfit (R.I.P.). HHE followers will remember him from his timeless "The Mayan Script" album we put out back in 2020. Not only was Senica a gifted poet but he was also a great actor that got several supporting roles in Netflix series and was getting increasingly more exposure. He was taken from us unexpectedly in 2021 but here you will find some of the last recordings he did gracing us with his insightful and deep storytelling.
Solid vs Green is exactly what Boom Bap headz want... hardcore production, killer cuts and skilled dope emcees that thrive on it. " - courtesy of Hip Hop Enterprise
Available on Neon Green Vinyl (100 copies), Black Vinyl (150 copies) & CD (100 copies)
In 1994, Gee Rock produced her debut EP titled "Every Which Way But Soft", but unfortunately it never came out. The last track "Straight Off Da Dome" from Gee Rock & Tha CND Coalition's "Tha Untouchable" album is off of this unreleased project.
Gee Rock : " The EP was not meant to be released because of the timing…we did those songs to get to know each other better, when we first met she didn’t have any material… So 'Every Which Way But Soft' was born… after that project we got serious about her career and the rest was history. "
Her Rap name at the time was Quannie Quan, She later became TreAzure. In 2001, she dropped her debut 12" (What's My Name? / Playin' With Me ) on Echo International. I don't know if the tracks are dope because I've never had the chance to listen to them.
