DJ Eclipse:

So mad I missed the very beginning of this show as my tape starts in the middle of Melle Mel‘s freestyle just before he passes it to his brother Kidd Creole while Flash cuts up the beat. Luckily I didn’t miss any of the Force MD‘s appearance (2:36) as they totally obliterate the mics. Sad to think at how downhill R&B has gone since brothers like these were on the scene. No autotune needed here.

Then at 12:48 the calls start coming in for people to rhyme with the first being Flash‘s son Jo Jo followed by many other callers. A few in house appearances by female MC The Original (16:35), Breez Evahflowin‘ (18:43) and M.O.P. (30:45) doing a live version of How About Some Hardcore. Force MD‘s show up again at the end to cap things off (35:28), but the final words go to Melle Mel with a rhyme recap (38:22). Shout out to Scorpio, Rahiem and Larry Love all in the place as well.
