Late 80's and straight Outta Greensboro, North Carolina; MC Willski, Mixmaster D and CJ Smooth aka Bizzie Boyz had developed a relationship with a local indie record label called Payroll. When the owner of Payroll moved back to his native New York he offered to take Willski with him.The rest is well documented Hip Hop history, Willski, alone in the big apple turned from MC to beat maker, he was discovered by DJ Clark Kent and went on to form one half of the group Original Flavor; the first group managed by Dame Dash. Then of course came Roc-A-Fella and Ski's involvement in the development of Jay-Z, Fat Joe and Lil' Kim.
This being BTF, we are more interested in the old school Hip Hop vibe. What prompted this post in the first place is the fact I picked up the 1990 Bizzie Boyz CD 'Droppin' It' last week, it was real cheap and sealed so I thought I'd give it a shot, I only really remembered the title track but the memory of that dopeness was strong enough to take the CD home.The album jams to me, there is the obligatory cheesy house song and the misdirected swing beat moment but out of 16 joints, the majority of them are heat. Willski is ill on the mic, great presence and well constructed lyrics.
I upped this CD for you to check out in a fresh ass 320k CD rip.
