Tapes 4 Sale ⬇️
DJ Glock tapes (1995-1996) another producer who is DJ Glock tapes (1995-1996) another producer who is often forgotten about is DJ Glock from Moscow, Tennessee. Obviously inspired by the local Memphis Sound. DJ Glock carved out a name for himself while producing for people like Puppy Dogg. Which imo is also easily his best release 🔥. Although Glock has long been retired. Many of his releases I still play years later💯 It’s just unfortunate that Glock and many artists alike have sold their publishing to the awful Sun City publishing for nickles and dimes. Essentially ruining their legacy as the quality is tampered with and forever altered. Regardless, his few surviving tapes are still classics in my eyes🔊
Hilltop Hustlaz - Mac A Fee (1998) Once again anot Hilltop Hustlaz - Mac A Fee (1998) Once again another very obscure and forgotten about release from an underrated group in Memphis. By the year 1997-1998 the newer generation of young rappers would emerge inspired but the sound of Squeeky and DJ Paul from years prior. While these releases are often more overlooked compared to the 93-96 tapes. I think their more polished production and sound is much more appealing than many others in the scene❗️This tape is still one of my favorite underground tapes. Because of it’s atmospheric synths and catchy hooks 🔥
Black Market Empire Tapes (1994-1995) While I can’t confidently pinpoint an exact year for these two releases it was most likely released sometime between 1994-1996. With group members and extra collaborators being Hard D, Flex (maybe DJ Flex), Mastermind Mick, & Rockmaster Rick who likely produced most of their songs with 1-2 other producers 🔥 While I definitely don’t know much about these releases or the group itself. I do know that I love both of these albums, despite them rarely ever getting mentioned 💯
The Family - kickin’ It About The Bricks (1996) The Family - kickin’ It About The Bricks (1996) Another forgotten about group went simply by the name The Family. They hailed from Blackhaven and had only one release from 1996. While I love this release, the quality online is less than ideal 💯 this is another release that I can’t wait to rip soon 🔥
Hard D Tapes (1995-1998) With so many legends comi Hard D Tapes (1995-1998) With so many legends coming outta Memphis in the 1990s it’s sometimes easy to overlook the acts like Hard D. While he is one of my personal favorites. His music online has been butchered horribly in quality which doesn’t accurately represent how good some of his songs are 💯 From his work with Crucifix, DJ Big Tim, Black Market Empire and his solo work. He is one of the greatest rappers to come from the city in my eyes 🔥
Destion - Light Years Ahead of Ya (1998) With how Destion - Light Years Ahead of Ya (1998) With how revolutionary the Memphis Rap sound was in the 90s it was almost inevitable for acts in other cities to follow this sound. Destion comes from Jackson, TN which was located close enough to Memphis for them to have a similar sound. While this tape is likely not an OG from 1990s Jackson, TN. I still love having this album on cassette 🔥
9 Tra Family (1995) Perhaps the best part about Me 9 Tra Family (1995) Perhaps the best part about Memphis Rap is the variety of different groups there were❗️From Three Six Mafia to Butcher shop and Frayser Click. Every neighborhood had at least one rap group it seemed like. 9 Tra family obviously must have formed some time in 1993 with some of their work presuming to be lost. The two tapes we do have are underground classics and still stand the test of time despite having little to no information on them 🔥
Shot Callers - Tryin To Make It (1997) While this Shot Callers - Tryin To Make It (1997) While this is yet again another tape from 1990s Tennessee. Instead of Memphis this group originates from Jackson, TN. Regardless of where they are from, this one and only release I can find from them is bumping 🔊 Again I don’t know much about this group. But all I know is that it sounds good when Its in my tape deck 🔥
DJ Squeeky Tapes (1992-1996) Once the Hip-Hop scen DJ Squeeky Tapes (1992-1996) Once the Hip-Hop scene in Memphis had been started by people like Spanish Fly. DJ Squeeky would be the first producer to capitalize off this emerging market. His tape mixtape series would gain traction in the city. And before you knew it Squeeky was producing for all the hottest artists in Memphis in the early-mid 90s 🔥 His revolutionary bass and unique sound would influence the entire genre and essentially opened the doors for many other producers in the city.
Tommy Wright III Tapes (1993-1996) TW is one name Tommy Wright III Tapes (1993-1996) TW is one name which has managed to stay relevant for over 30 years. While his underground cassette run in the 1990s was legendary. His popularity in recent years and sudden surge of concerts and performances is what makes TW even more legendary in my opinion 🔥 Not to mention that his 1996 run is one of the best ever single year runs in Memphis history. Such as DJ Paul in 1994. And DJ Squeeky in 1995.
Blackout Tapes (1995-1998) Blackout is definitely Blackout Tapes (1995-1998) Blackout is definitely a fan favorite in the Memphis rap scene❗️He arguably had the darkest and creepiest beats of anyone from the city 🔥 On top of that he did production for the biggest and best Playa Fly songs from back in the 90s. His influence can still be heard today just like many of these artists 💯
K Rock The World (2000) K Rock is another artist f K Rock The World (2000) K Rock is another artist from Memphis who deserves much more praise in the rap scene. As a member of Prophet Posse in the late 90s. K-Rock would record many of his earliest songs with Three Six Mafia. Before leaving the group in about 1999. To sign with Nicky Scarfo Jackson who still owned the rights to the Prophet Posse name. This album would come immediately after that and is still his best in my opinion 🔥 unfortunately K rock would pass away in Prison in 2018. I can still remember the exact moment I hard the news in my 1st period Art class in High School. Rip to both Nick Scarfo and K Rock ❗️
DJ Sound Tapes (1992-2005) DJ Sound is most defini DJ Sound Tapes (1992-2005) DJ Sound is most definitely my favorite underground producer from Memphis❗️I first heard his music on an airplane trip when I downloaded a 2 hour compilation. Since that moment I have been an ultimate DJ Sound fan. I have nearly all his tapes and consider many of these some of the best from the genre🔥
MC Mack Tapes (1996-2000) one of my favorite rappe MC Mack Tapes (1996-2000) one of my favorite rappers from Memphis is without a doubt MC Mack❗️Although Mack is known to both produce & rap. His skills on the microphone has aged much better than many others his age. Mack gets my utmost respect for continuing to drop album after album, even in his 50s 🔥
Shawty Pimp Tapes (1994-1997) It took a long time Shawty Pimp Tapes (1994-1997) It took a long time for legendary producer & rapper Shawty Pimp to get the love he truly deserves ❗️When it comes to smooth, laid back, pimp beats. Shawty Pimp did it the best in the underground 💯 The best part about his catalog is that he dropped nearly 15 different tapes in the few years the underground was around🔥 Although his consistency would somewhat fall off. His music after this period was definitely still good and has been for over 30 years.
Project Pat Tapes (1994-2002) One of the most fami Project Pat Tapes (1994-2002) One of the most familiar names to ever come out of Memphis. Being blood brothers to Juicy J meant Pat became a member of the crew immediately ❗️Although he was locked up for more than half of his peak career. In retrospective, his style influenced many. And his music has lived longer than many others from the same era 🔥
196 Clique - Crucifix’s (1996) This album is oft 196 Clique - Crucifix’s (1996) This album is often regarded as one of the hardest album covers from the Memphis Rap scene. Both the production and raps on it live up to the wild cover. Although the group released 2 more full albums after this. It was still hard for this album and the group to see success locally like DJ Paul or DJ Squeeky. With the advent of the internet however this group has still managed to live on❗️With “Crucifixes” being considered a classic in the underground 🔥
DJ Sound Volume 1-3,7-11 (1992-1996) Out of all pr DJ Sound Volume 1-3,7-11 (1992-1996) Out of all producers in Memphis dropping mixtapes. DJ Sound’s volumes were the best in my opinion. From about Volume 6-11, Sound was putting out hit after hit. But Volume 9-11 were truly some of his best work 🔥 I can still play any DJ Sound’s tape to this day and that Volume 9 will always be one of my favorites ever❗️
Happy 3️⃣/6️⃣ day❗️❗️Been some yea Happy 3️⃣/6️⃣ day❗️❗️Been some years since I last celebrated. Although I play their music almost everyday. Today lets all recognize the impact this legendary group had on music💪 And continue to listen to some of the greatest tracks ever made🔥
DJ Squeeky Volume 2-9 (1993-1995) At a time when e DJ Squeeky Volume 2-9 (1993-1995) At a time when everyone in the city had their own volumes. DJ Squeeky was leading the way for a short period. Some of the songs on these volumes would give Squeeky the career boost he needed for the next-decade. Songs like Lookin For The Chewin on Volume 4 have become some of the most popular songs from this era 🔥
