Nujabes, produced 80% of this wonderful album, dont miss out on Pase Rock's (FIVE DEEZ) only solo album that was released in Japan. Im not feeling his new stuff, as he is involved with many artitsts, like spank rock and santigold, i dont understand the hype with those artists, but then again im really not into club or dancehall music, seems to be the direction that Five Deez went on their last two albums. Its an original sound but i perfer the early works. This album is simply, fly to def.

Homeliss Derilex are one of my favorite Hip-hop groups of the 90's. HD's are the true definition of the (underground) Jazzy-Hip-Hop with a Westcoast laidback sound. Starting the the early 90's featuring MC 50 Grand (aka Grand the Visitor) with beats by The Architect. The group hails from San Francisco and were doing their thing, when Peanut butter Wolf picked them up as one of the first press 12" vinyl of the young stones throw catalog (cash money 12"). The Architect is now pretty well known, he has worked with Rubix, Planet Asia and many other west coast groups. He has put out a couple of dope instrumental lp as well.In 2003 stones throw re-released the rare HD's ep "Fraudulent" (only on wax) Original released around 94. In 2005 the group would release "Fraudulent the album" with 8 addition tracks to make it a full album. The lp version did feature 2 tracks that were left off the cd release and they are contained in this The B-Sides collection, included is the Cash Money 12" with two additional remixes of the song. The song max mode (prod PBW) was a classic sleeper that was released as a solo 50 grand track (amazing vinyl only track). If you dont know who these guys are I would definitly look out from anything produced by the Architect, and the Grand Visitor is about to release his first solo album. As far as the other HD albums they have put out 2 lp recently which are "Raise it Up" and "HD's Vs. The Sp-1200" both dope as hell. I have put a coulpe of tracks on the halftime series, so if you liked what you heard, dont miss the rest of thier discog, also I am missing a few b-side/12" from Grand's solo 12" so let me know what im missing.

80mins of great hip-hop! Random selections from the crates & digital library that I have been playing more than some other tracks. Look out for vol. 2! Jerk Anthem, is outta control, 12" releases only, but probably the best Five Deez track I ve heard. There is no order to the tracks in the zip folder, just grabbed tracks from thier folders, so dont stress over the titles or tracks numbers, should come up in wmp or itunes. The tracklisting up here is a suggestion based on flow...

Please give some feedback of what artists you guys like or request from more of an artists, so i can put some more mixes together.

"Citizen Xavier is a triumphant foot on the chest of the defeated opposition. I write rhymes because I flat out love to...I make beats because I flat out love to...My songs depict my thoughts, feelings, and opinions. I personify semantics and shed light on what most try to keep in the dark. I could go on in a more autobiographical manner, but just listen to the songs. If there's something you feel you need to know, hit me up. If not, enjoy what's been provided. You can also check out my man King Midas at myspace.com/goldtouchprods. He is the only other producer I work with and I have the utmost respect for his style. Hip Hop is nowhere near dead..its just that the dope MC's are either undiscovered or they only get so far because their styles don't cater to the majority. Either way, there are still heads out there who put their heart and souls into puttin down something funky fresh..THESE ARE THE PEOPLE THAT NEED OUR ATTENTION. Peace. "

This is a small sample of Citizen Xavier material from the last four years.For true Hip-Hop heads, looking for intelligent lyrics and raw beats! Look out for his next release "The Blue Horizon Project" & his new songs.

{From the mailroom to “Move,” to “One A.M.” and beyond, Diverse innovates. A self-described poet, his rhymes are true. Shunning the pseudo-hard stance taken by some emcees in favor of everyday human experience, Diverse consistently ups the ante. Over the course of numerous releases and collaborations, his rhymes have shown that flash and substance don’t necessarily have to be adversaries. }

I couldn't put his story together better than his record label has so i let them do the background check. Diverse is one of my favorite artist after 00' his only full One A.M. is a classic front to back. The vinyl is pressed on heavy vinyl, and stays in my recently listing too crate. The production of A.M. is is amazing mostly composed by Rjd2 and Prefuse 73. His debut ep Move is hard to find and is only 4 tracks deep, and he has release many singles from One A.M. all containing b-sides and remixes. But still I was in search of more Diverse, I came across lots of random collaboration with underground artist I havent yet heard. I have collected some of the better songs and save you the time of locating these gems. The tracks not to be missed are "beyond" (prod Madlib) "Against Me" and " The Blues Singer".

bringing this back around, most downloaded thing ive posted, some jacked the mix, but its an MS upload, for those who havent search 15+ pages back...
