Various - Fugitive Records 1995 Preview Sampler - 1995

 

 

I've been in contact with a few persons involved in this compilation album, but they were definitely not really talkative or they simply didn't want to talk about it, so I won't give you some great details unfortunately... but this various compilation album released in 1995 by Fugitive Records from Virginia Beach,VA is something that I'd like to see reissued on vinyl.

LP - 1995 - Fugitive Records 

This comp includes some interesting tracks from unknown artists such as the female emcee Szuga, Dreadlock, Nutbuster : Lord Sha, Mr X, Da Koffenmakkah and The General Sekwan who is the only one who released a debut 12" officially on the same record label in 1994. 

All those emcees are from Norfolk,VA ,Virginia Beach,VA, Pittsburgh, PA and Brooklyn, NY. The productions were handled by Deshon Wilson who was also the owner of the record label, Bink Dog, J. Mitchel, Wayne Cooke and D. Brooks.

12" - 1994 - Fugitive Records  

The General Sekwan... that's a name you should know if you've ever listened to the excellent Fugitive Records 1995 Preview Sampler compilation released on vinyl & CD in 1995. This comp produced by D. Wilson, Bink Dog and J. Mitchell features various artists from Virginia Beach, VA like the female emcee Szuga, Nutbuster: Lord Sha, Dreadlock and Da Koffenmaka.

The General Sekwan's debut 12" came out in 1994 and is the only official vinyl released by Fugitive Records in addition to the compilation. On the A-side of that wax you can listen to the lead single "Lickin Off" featuring Ghetto Blaster & Mr. X, which is also on the comp. "Thanks For Nothin" and "The Madd Chokers" are the tracks on the B-side. All the tracks are produced by Crime Lab Productions.
