Cannibal Ox- Speakeroxxx /The Ox Below Mega Mix



Cannibal Ox has for years been regarded as one of the preeminent underground groups of the 2K. Comprised of Vordul Mega and Vast Aire, the duo from Harlem, NYC is usually accompanied by their longtime DJ, Cip-One. They've come to be recognized as one of the premier acts on Def Jux, and a couple of fellas that can be pretty pervasive at times. In the latter part of the 2K there have been tons of rumors swirling about the group; from a possible breakup to clinical depression, Can Ox fans might find themselves somewhat in the dark these days as to what the duo really has been up to. Aside from "Mecca And The Ox" (the newest Cannibal Ox joint produced by Pete Rock) making the rounds on the net and on web radio, many have noticed the absence of the group from the underground landscape. Sapposedly creative and financial differences with El-P and Definitive Jux has pushed Vast and Vordul away from there one time label home, and despite their denial of it, the two have been wroking with each other less and less. Still, Vast Aire maintains that he has a new project coming, and that Vordul will be featured on it. Vordul also claims to have a new album coming. As encouraging as that sounds, everyone knows how it goes when it comes to your favorite subterranean emcee or group dropping an anticipated new release. So with all of that being said and done, I wanted to bring you guys a really dope mix of some of the Ox's finest moments. This mix was put together by Max Bedroom, and was initially included as a bonus CD over on HipHopsite.com. Many of the tracks on it most hardcore Ox fans will be familiar with, but considering the situation, why not have a good "best of" type of disc from Cannibal Ox laying around....
