The Edge - Do Ya Dirt - 1994

12" - 1994 - Represent Records  

Hailing from the Edgemere Projects in Far Rockaway, Queens, The Edge was a short-lived but memorable rap duo consisting of P-Lyve and Ken Du.

Emerging in the early 90s, these 2 childhood friends dropped their only official record "Do Ya Dirt" in 1994 on the Brooklyn-based label, Represent Records, that was a group effort between the producer Dominic Owen, the Edge and Rodney Holley, and funded by a Hustler from Brooklyn. The single was played on Hot 97 by the legendary DJ Premier, but it never achieved commercial success. It has since become a sought-after collector's item among fans of independent East Coast hip-hop. 

All the tracks of this 12" were originally recorded in 1994 in the High Class studios in Brownsville, Brooklyn. The A-side features the lead single "Do Ya Dirt", produced by Dominic Owen. It includes Street, Radio and Instrumental versions. Flipping the record over reveals "Who's Dat Chick", produced by Dominic Owen & Fabian Hamilton. It also includes the Acapella version of "Do Ya Dirt".

Dominic Owen began his production career under the name DJ Quick in the UK. Dominic is known for his productions for Notorious Big, Rakim, Chubb Rock, Special Ed... just to name a few. He met the Edge, originally called Double Edge in 1993. They were brought down to High Studios by a mutual friend, their manager Rodney Holley.

They had worked on more music, then P-Lyve went to jail, so the project stopped. After this release a few years later they did an album under the banner "Floss City" called "Father Rule Vol 1". This featured The Edge and several artists from Far Rockaway based in Edgemere projects.
