Ok so usually when u hear that someone is knocking out a FREE set of tracks for your listening pleasure amid the first reactions of being grateful and pleased that it’s free, you also begin to think about the first time you were told “If it seems too good to be true it probably is” …. however this doesn’t apply here.

 

This 9 track banger is absolute FIRE and contains something for absolutely everyone, the only way you are not going to feel this is if you have no love of Hip Hop whatsoever.

 

This is a complete encapsulation of everything Hip Hop should be,  the best in the business doing their thing with Stealf at the wheel driving some thumping beats adding his unique twist on such classics.

 

It is a composition of tracks of which everyone will have a favorite and is the perfect companion for anyone who has a musical device to turn up loud !!

 

With all the heavy hitters of the hip hop world on “The Mixing Bowl” it seems a given that this was going to work, but there is a sense of responsibility with such  material and a great pressure to do each track justice when you have such names as Game, Joe Budden, Jim Jones, Lil Wayne, Kayne West and Jay Z to name but a few, featured on this epic compilation of Stealf remixes.

 

Our personal favorites out of this bunch have to be “The Announcing of a classic” – Jay-Z and Kanye West and “Hello West Coast” – Game, Dr. Dre & Ice Cube, these tracks will take you back to the good old days of Hip Hop and will show you how a remix can revive the memories of classic tracks, with a modern twist that makes you want to bump out these beats all over again.

 

“The Mixing Bowl” is an absolute banger that you need to have on your tracklist, we cant get enough of this and it seems to go harder every time you listen to it…… this a 10/10 composition of the best by the best …. hats off to Stealf he has done it again.

TCO is proud to present true legends of Rap, Ice Cube & Naughty By Nature in concert.

Pioneers and originators of West coast & east coast rap come together for two exclusive and unmissable dates in the UK. O’Shea Jackson, better known as Ice Cube, is a rap legend of his own lifetime. The American rapper, actor, screenwriter, film director, and producer, who began his stella career as a member of seminal gangster / reality rap group N.W.A. alongside Dr Dre, Eazy-E and MC Ren in South Central LA California, is now just as famous as a Hollywood actor with leading roles in some classic hit movies such as, Barbershop, Boyz In the Hood, Friday, Three Kings, etc.  But 2010 saw Cube return to his true calling with his 9th studio album ‘I Am The West’, and it’s with this body of work that Ice Cube sets off on the road and hits the UK in July 2011.  Expect to hear classic joints spanning 9 albums, from his first solo album AmeriKKKa’s Most Wanted, via bangers ‘It Was Good Day’, ‘Check Yo Self ‘ ft Das EFX, through to the club banger ‘You Can Do It’.

Bringing the West Coast & East coast rap together on one stage will be Grammy Award winning Naughty By Nature.  The American rap trio from East Orange, New Jersey, formed in 1989, consisting of Treach, Vin Rock, and the DJ Kay Gee.  Originally mentored by fellow New Jersey native Queen Latifah, Naught By Nature  stormed the hip hop (and pop) world with their Jackson 5 hit ’ABC’ sampled record ‘O.P.P.’ in 1991.  The group have had multiple hits from the subsequent 6 albums, including ‘Poverty’s Paradise’ which won a Grammy Award in 1996 for Best Rap Album, becoming the first album to win this award. With Treach’s stage presence, and the musical ability of dj & producer Kay Gee on the stage, Naughty By Nature will be bringing that old school block party flavour to the UK!

 

2 rap legends together on one stage, ICE CUBE & NAUGHTY BY NATURE, unmissable!

 

Finebeats will be attending on the evening, so be sure to grab your tickets now  to avoid disappointment as this is one event that any true Hip Hop fan simply cannot miss !
