Classic Tape Week: Kid Capri - 52 Beats

This joint is one of my favorite Kid Capri tapes yo...."52 Beats" is a huge collection of neck snapping beats from yesteryear that the man Kid Capri threw together on a tape back in 92'. This joint features some of the illest beats from that era, as well as a few gems that i've never been able to identify. On the cover it says it also features "original beats" as well, so I'm guessing that maybe there might be a few joints on this that Capri produced himself, but don't quote me on that, it's just a guess. You'd have to go ask a real Kid Capri/mixtape expert about that, and since Capri was a little bit before my time, I just ain't too sure bout that. Back to the tape itself though. Capri is basically on here just showing you why he calls himself the greatest DJ in the world, and whay nobody disputes that claim. Showing off his crazy mixing and scratching skills to some of the beats that hip-hop was founded on, Capri puts together a blueprint that can ever so accurately expose someone to hip-hop production and DJing in the early 90's and late 80's. This is much more than just a tape filled with classic break beats, this is a history lesson and it proves that great hip-hop can still be relevant, but you gotta listen first!
