Waajeed - The Patty Hearst Beat Tape



To give all you beat heads somethin ill and different, this time I go back and grab a straight gem from Detroit beatmaker extraordinaire Waajeed. Titled "The Patty Hearst Beat Tape", it was originally released in 2006. Your probably wondering why Waajeed named this 30 track mix after the famed newspaper heiress, actress and one time kidnappee of the Symbionese Liberation Army. What you will find is that this beat tape is wonderfully imaginative and used Hearst's incredible real life story of intrigue as the backdrop for Waa's instrumentals. Complete with sound bites from the news and other media that covered the story, it is captivating and informative. Originally I guess only about 300 some copies were printed up of this, so your not gonna find it anywhere I would imagine, unless your lucky.......that's why I bestow it upon you now. Waajeed is truly a fool for this one, bringing a real life drama to animation with his beats and educating those not in the know about Hearst's amazing story at the same time.

-BIG D O


*no Tracklist sorry, but you will find early versions of "Get Live" and "Pick Your Poison" from Waajeed's "The War LP" along with the rough version of Platinum Pied Piper's "Funkin For Jamiaca"*
