Bonus: BOOGIE BLIND PT.2 (Crooked's Demo Tape)

ROAD PODCAST (Reflections Of A DJ)

In our more recent Episode #86 with special guest @BoogieBlind from @TheXecutioners, @DJCrooked played a few audio snippets from a demo tape he made in 1999-2001 with Blind and a collective group of unknown rappers from East/West Harlem called LTG (Lyrics To Go). With very little resources and equipment, Crooked made beats and manually looped them on a Gemini 24 Second Sampler and recorded the songs on a Tascam 8 Track Cassette Recorder. Boogie Blind, having never owned turntables of his own, would be at Crooked's apartment frequently practicing on his Technic 1200's and collaborating on almost every song being made. At the request of our curious listeners, who were impressed by Boogie Blind's innovative and progressive scratches and shocked by Crooked's rapping/producing, we decided to post some of the songs from their demo tape (also knowing how much this embarrasses Crooked was an added bonus lol). Please disregard the some of the sound quality as all of the music was recorded on cassette tapes over 20 years ago.
