Uglypitch Records Presents The World Meets : Hieroglyphics

 

Here is the 4th episode of the "The World Meets" series paying homage this time to the legendary Hieroglyphics crew.

Mix : Take It Personal - Hieroglyphics Tribute - 2019

"Oakland is a city filled with dynasties teams. You had the Raiders, the A’s and most recently, the Warriors. But this Oakland collective, better known as the Hieroglyphics Crew, had a dynasty of their own. Founded by Del the Funky Homosapien, this was squad rolled deep, very deep. They were like the Wu before the Wu even existed.

Hieroglyphics featured many  personalities and styles ranging from Del, Casual, Pep Love, Domino, Opio, Phesto, Tajai, A-Plus, Jay-Biz, Mike G, Snupe, Extra Prolific to Toure. Their 3rd eye logo is immediately recognizable as are many of their classics cuts. This mini-mix is from our West Coast Classic series, and while we only scratched the surface, this Hiero tribute serves as a great reminder of the their dominance in hip-hop.

Oaktown is full of legends like Rickey Henderson, Bill Russell, Kamala Harris, Tom Hanks, Mark Hamill, Bruce and Brandon Lee, Gary Payton, Marshawn Lynch, 2Pac, Paul Pierce, MC Hammer, Tony! Toni! Tone!, Frank Oz, The Pointer Sisters, Too $hort, Mac Dre, Clint Eastwood, Zendaya, one-time Hiero affiliate Mahershala Ali , and the muthaf*ckin' Hieroglphics crew!" - Take It Personal Radio  

Interview : The House List - Ep. 93 - Opio (Souls of Mischief)

"We triangulate our minds with the one and only Opio Lindsey on this week's epic episode. Known across globe for his work as master freestyler/rhyme-weaver with the definitively distinctive voice in Souls of Mischief and Hieroglyphics, our talk deeply delves into his story within the framework of their works and the many new endeavors in his catalog. This is a special treat for any hardcore fan. Recorded back in Brooklyn on a hot Sunday afternoon. It is a FULL ON coincidence that this is our 93rd episode of The House List podcast. My goal is to get to 100,000 streams on SoundCloud by the 100th show - so please help re-post!" - Peter Agoston
