Big Mark – Real Killas (1995)

Real Killas is a 1995 Memphis underground release produced by DJ Zae of OB Records under Oscar Barnes, capturing the raw mid-90s North Memphis sound built around heavy drum programming, street-focused lyricism, and collaborative posse cuts. The tape reflects the tight-knit OB Records circle, featuring appearances from names like C-Money, SMK, and DJ Pinky, all contributing to the gritty atmosphere that defined many independent Memphis releases during this era. With DJ Zae handling production, Real Killas leans into dark melodies and steady cruising tempos, balancing hardcore street themes with classic pimp-style narratives. The project stands as a solid example of the regional sound coming out of smaller Memphis labels in 1995, showcasing how local crews built their own identities alongside the bigger names emerging from the city at the time.
