Side 1

'It's Yours' T La Rock & Jazzy Jay

This is one of those sought after old skool hip hop track that you have to pay a lot of money for if you're buying it from anyone who knows what it is. Wicked scratching by D.J. legend 'Jazzy Jay' who was in the hip hop film 'Beat Street'. There's a video for this track as well but it's very hard to track down. If anyone has got it, I'd swap a copy for a test press of the next B-Boy Anthems.


'Joyous' Pleasure

One of those funky tracks you always hear played everywhere, the break has been use on lots of Hip Hop tracks over the years.


'Big Apple Productions Volume 2' Genius At Work

This mega-mix track influenced me to get into sampling, very cleverly put together considering the technology available at the time it was made. Old skool classics mixed up into one track.


'Rocket In The Pocket' Cerrone

An old skool break that's been cut up since the Cool Herc days. The original is one of those breaks you put on 45 rpm when it is intended for 33 play. This was recorded at 45 for this album so you can play it on the 33 setting. The break part at the beginning of the track and a bit of the music has been looped up for extended play. The rest of it was left out.


Side 2

'King Kut' Word Of Mouth feat. D.J. Cheese

D.J. Cheese was probably the best scratch D.J. in the world when this track came out, anyone who saw him at U.K. Fresh '86 will know what I mean. This tune, well known for that french national anthem bit is hard and raw and has Cheese cutting up bits of 'Jam Master Jay' by Run DMC.


'Funky Mule' Ike & Tina Turner

The 45 King was the one of the first to loop this up on a sampler, since hearing those beats I was intrigued to find out what it was and was amazed when I found out. I myself have cained this break but it's not just the break which is raw, the whole track is as funky as they come and just great for doing loads of mental footwork to.


'The Roof Is On Fire' Rock Master Scott & The Dynamic Three

Unless you've been living in a hole in the ground you'll recognise the sample in this track used by the Chemical brothers, here's the original and it's wicked. This was on Electro 9 but it's a different version to the 12" mix on this album.


'Beat Biter' M.C. Shan

This track is a dis to LL Cool J. MC Shan claims LL Stole his beats, I don't blame him, I've stole his beat as well. Produced by Marley Marl these beats are well worth stealing .
