Lady Bee – Something For The Streets #2 (1994)

Lady Bee – Something For The Streets Part #2 (1994)

This rare tape captures a fascinating transitional moment in Memphis rap history. Most notably, it possibly marks the first time that Skinny Pimp began pitching his voice and imitating Lady Bee’s signature delivery—an artistic choice that may have been rooted in personal history. Around the time this release was being put together (or heavily in demand), Lady Bee and Skinny Pimp had reportedly divorced, adding a layer of tension and intrigue to the project. Released sometime in 1994, this tape stands out as one of the more elusive entries in the Memphis underground. With a gritty, DIY sound and a heavy emphasis on street realism, it features raw contributions from scene staples like Lil Gin and Mr. Tazz, and showcases Skinny Pimp in a variety of forms—sometimes menacing, sometimes experimental, always distinct. Whether you’re a fan of Memphis rap’s murky backstories or just here for the lo-fi bass and pitch-shifted flows, this one’s a must for collectors.
