Peace to hevehitta over at The Diggers Union: Local 1200 for sending this goodness over. Make sure you check them out, that’s a real ill blog.
Following up on our 40th Anniversary of hip-hop tribute, we present “The Allowance Money Mix”, reflecting songs DJ Unexpected accumulated via his allowance money when he was a child. From classic tapes like the Harlem World 1981 showcase featuring the infamous Kool Moe Dee vs. Busy Bee showdown to 12″s from Ultramagnetic MCs, Big Daddy Kane and Grandmaster Flash, we present 2-hours of classic hip-hop. With some great anecdotes to accompany the selections, be assured there’s plenty more to come as we strive to bring you the best combination of music and trivia. As always, enjoy and be educated. – The Diggers Union
