Mick Boogie + NVME + Duck Down Records Presents: Survival Kit

This looks pretty promising....

Paying tribute to KRS-One and Buckshot's highly slept-on (how does that happen?) 2009 album "Survival Skills" Duck Down Records gets up with Cleveland spin master Mick Boogie and producer NVME to recruit a cast of new MC's and artist's that did manage to catch that album and wanted to give it a nod in their own special way...

From Torae, Ruste Juxx, Fashawn, Tanya Morgan, Skyzoo, Diz Gibran and the lovely Melanie Fiona (who I believe appeared on "Survival Skills") among others this mix has a bunch of worthy new talent on it and their attempts at re-creating some of Kris' and Buck's all-time classic records are admirable....

NVME has some serious skills on the beat making tip that helps drive this 11 track effort and while it's not the best tape I've put up in the past week or so it is free and I'll wholeheartedly co-sign 7 of the 11 cuts...
