Single: The Juice Crew - Mr. Magic Tribute

Big Daddy Kane, MC Shan, Craig G, Roxanne Shante, Marley Marl, Biz Markie & TJ Swan AKA The Juice crew all reunite to pay respect to the man that made their career's all possible and made Hip-Hop on the radio possible, Mr. Magic....

Despite a noticeably absent Kool G Rap and Masta Ace, this tribute is pure heat. Over a familiar Patrice Rushen sample all seven MC's bid farewell to their mentor in true Cold Chillin' style. Between Biz's, Kane's and Shan's verses I'm freakin' ready for a new album! I have no clue why Kool G and Ace weren't on this...maybe they are planning separate tributes, maybe they missed a bus or something, either way it looks kinda sideways when Roxanne Shante, fresh off of being exposed as a liar in all those DVD's and news interviews showed up (and killed it too) and they didn't. Damn...

In any case, this beautiful and 100% Hip-Hop ode to the late, great Sir Juice is the most fitting way to send him off. I'm sure wherever he is now he's heard this and is getting ready to spin it back 5 times in a row....
