hardwe're


jersey in full effect!

a while back my man ed told me about a dope record by a jersey group called hardwe're.

"Dope production and hardcore rhymes. They talk on one track, where they seriously go after an ex-crew member, about how Jay-Z and Rocafella wanted to sign them but this guy fucked the thing up by refusing (R-O-C wanted the whole crew)"

after getting the twelve incher i knew what he meant.

the group includes k-mak (producer/dj) and hardwe're's "hype man" deuce (mc). i think after this 12" they did demo's for the main stream market for labels such as jive, def jam or roc-a-fella. k-mak began his hip-hop career as "little seven," a 13-year-old break dancer with the newark group hassan and 7-11.

i'm not sure what they are up to nowadays, but while james stokes (k-mak) runs his own clothing business at http://7flavaz.com, dante daily (deuce) teamed up with his younger brother bless to form a producer collabo named the soul diggaz.

my shit here is "real niggaz" of course. but "1, 2, 3 (corrupt thoughts)" is nice as well. i think this must be from '96 or '97. i'm sorry for the clean edit of 1, 2, 3.. my copy looks perfect but skips during the street version.


HARDWE'RE 12" '9x

1. 1, 2, 3 (CORRUPT THOUGHTS)
2. CALLEN YOU OUT
3. REAL NIGGAZ






enjoy!

connecticut kartel

yup yup, big update!

i bought this record last july randomly and it turned out to be a really dope and lately much sought after record. "the question is?" ep by the connecticut kartel is an extract from their full length cd with nine tracks.

the group from bridgeport, connecticut consists of three members. i think it's yahiness, uncut and a third one. but i'm not sure. please help me out here should you know more. the cd and ep dropped in '97 on chase entertainment.



the track "all in" had been featured in a mix by dj premier i think. that's the reason suddenly people were aware of the group.

CONNECTICUT KARTEL "THE QUESTION IS?" EP '97

1. C.K. STATE OF MIND
2. ALL OUT
3. BIRTH CONTROL
4. MONEY CLIPS (SHORT VERSION)




my fav of course is "all out", but i enjoy "c.k. state of mind" and "money clips" as well!

you'll find yahiness on myspace:
