Since I can’t upload for the next 24 hours, I figured I’d ask for some feedback on the rips I’ve already done and hear what everyone’s favorites are.
-
What is your all-time favorite Memphis tape?
-
What is your favorite tape rip that I’ve uploaded so far?
-
Which tape are you most excited for me to rip in the future?
For me personally:
-
DJ Sound – Volume #9
To me, this is peak Memphis. The production, the variety of rappers, and the overall mood make it a perfect tape front to back. -
DJ Paul – Volume #14
One of my favorite rips I’ve done so far. That tape really captures the raw, slowed-down, smoked-out sound that made early Three 6-era Memphis so special. -
DJ Spanish Fly – Volume #46
Unheard Spanish Fly from December 1994. There's a copy for sale on Ebay now for over $1,000
Curious to hear everyone else’s picks and thoughts.
leaving out the 36 catalog since they have so much great stuff.
1. 196 Clique - Crucifixes, in all honesty first time I heard it did not resonate at all & but it has grown on me for the last couple of months now.
2. Big Jag - NMCTMA, I like how it is unabashed about its message & its like a window for the sentiment that was going on back then esp. in Memphis.
3. Psycho - The Return of Psycho, one of the first tapes I got into & was pretty accessible since I was listening to G-Funk & stuff like that at the time.

Just bumped that Spanish Fly #46, never got into Spanish Fly but it was cool to hear that! Can't say I know what tapes you have or plan to release but the more rips that are out there, the better!
1# DJ Paul & Juicy J Volume 3
2# I have been obsessed with DJ Spanish Fly 22 & 31 since joining this site.
3# Immortal Lowlife - The Dark Fortress (if you have it or end up ripping it), I haven't heard a good rip of it other than the official CD remaster.
Still got so much I haven't listened to yet though.
I have that Immortal Lowlife tape but it sounds real bad lol. I Was quite disappointed it's probably a boot or just damaged or something. Maybe I Will get another one eventually but I do have their other tapes too.
