DJ Books - The Juice Crew: Masters Of The Symphony



Far better than any other fodder you could throw on a tape today, DJ Books reminds us just how ill The Juice Crew was and in many ways still is...

Banking in every notable Juice crew hit from their long and illustrious run that lastd from about 1983 to 1992 or so, DJ Books highlights an era that is long gone, but still easily murks most of what is being released today.

Featuring joints from members of the crew that are still highly active in Masta Ace, Craig G and Kool G Rap, as well as gems from the cats that have fallen back a bit in their recording endeavors like Big Daddy Kane, MC Shan and Biz Markie, this is a thorough run through of the Crew's classic record's. Also featured are what was the two lone femcee's in the collective, Dimples D and Roxanne Shante. As always the majority of these bangers are produced by none other than the founding father of the largely Queens-based clique, Marley Marl and the diabolical one, Biz Markie...

Playing this mix was just a refreshing dose of when the music came first...Makes me even more pissed off that that Juice Crew movie got cancelled.

For nostalgia and correct Hip-Hop this earns an 8 1/2 outta 10....
