Dig Of The Day: The 45 King ft. Maniac Mob – Rock The Rhythm (1993)
Today, on Dig Of The Day, well what can I say? Grab your sweaters, coffee or tea and enjoy what you’re about to read.
Ill and real with mad skill raw organic Hip-Hop, this time from The 45 King and underground cats known as the Maniac Mob, goin’ hard like concrete on Rock The Rhythm beat. The yellow vinyl visual (click continue reading to see it) represents the original Brainstorm EP 1st pressing limited to 50 copies and released on 45 King Records in 1993. A little later he released a 2nd pressing limited to a few hundred pieces with the same runout etchings only this time the b-side label was black and had a big white 45 King logo without the head. The blue vinyl visual is a 2005 Brainstorm EP repress from Ol’ Skool Flava.
The only thing “they”, whoever did it, managed to f*ck up are the certain words we all know that are unnecessarily censored and definitely should not be in a jam like this, (same story for other tracks on the EP) but I guess it would be simply too dope otherwise, at least on this repress, since I have a strong reason and Latee‘s uncensored Brainstorm version I received from The 45 King himself, which doesn’t exist online or on 2005 repress including Latee – Who Rips The Sound? 2012 release from Diggers With Gratitude, to believe that it may not sound the same on the original 1993 pressing, but to be absolutely sure, I gotta get the original one ’cause none of the original tracks are uploaded anywhere.
Stay tuned
