Boom Box Radio: Fat Joe was WAYYYYYYY doper in the 90’s

By admin • May 22nd, 2010


Fat Joe has been around forever…real talk. Sometimes we forget that, but homie was one of the original members of D.I.T.C with Big L, Lord Finesse and the rest of the crew. He was crazy dope, crazy raw and had the hunger of 100 wolves. He’s become arguably less dope over the years (that’s our opinion…sue us). The way we see it, Fat Joe was waaaaaaay doper in the 90’s. Let’s take a minute and show respect to the kid Joey Crack, the fat gangsta. Big Up south BX! SUBSCRIBE!

Boom Box Radio: BBR is Breakin’ Atoms

By admin • May 15th, 2010


Main Source was an innovative, acclaimed Toronto and New York-based hip hop group comprising Toronto natives Sir Scratch, K-Cut, and Queens native Large Professor. Later, Mikey D (also a Queens native) replaced Large Professor on their second album, which was shelved due to label conflict. Credited with bringing forth the first on record appearance on Nas, Main Source was also the springboard from Large Professor who went on to produce more tracks then we can mention here. Let’s all pay homage by zoning out to a few classics! SUBSCRIBE!

Boom Box Radio: Let’s Get Jurassic

By admin • Apr 17th, 2010


Jurassic 5 split in February 2007. The reason for the split was unclear; however member Soup (AKA Zaakir) had this to say: “I don’t want to sit here and fake around with it – we’re not seeing eye-to-eye right now… I’d like to keep it going, but you can’t force grown men to do what they don’t want to do.” Word…J5 were dope as hell…We thought we’d take an episode to play some of our fav joints…you know the deal…SUBSCRIBE!
