P Fine - Rap This on WNYU (Sept 1987)

Prime golden era rap radio courtesy of Diablo. P Fine hosting Rap This on WNYU from September '87 and the tracklist is just splendid. Certified classics by the likes of BDP, Kane and the Jungle Brothers sit alongside relative obscurities like Vandy C & Bill Blast and Devastator (P Fine and Livio G's group), plus a Stetsasonic promo over chain snatchers' favourite Go Stetsa I. Interestingly, P also plays The Rulers Back and says it's "never to be released on vinyl". I remember reading something about Ricky D's debut getting delayed but didn't realise tracks were in circulation a year before it dropped. The live version of Treat Her Like A Prostitute also gets an airing. If anyone has a bit more info on the back story or chronology of these songs drop some knowledge in the comment section.

DJ Riz & DJ Eclipse - Halftime Show (1999)

Riz and Eclipse's Halftime Show on WNYU from April '99. Not too much talking on this one. East coast underground joints are the order of the day, plus Lil Cease and Mr Bristal pass through the studio.

If you want the Cease & Bristal freestyle seperately I posted it here a few weeks ago

Thanks to Tobes for the original tape.

DJ Riz & DJ Eclipse - Halftime Show (2001)

45 minutes of Riz & Eclipse's 'Halftime Show' from February 2001. Features music by MOP, Beatnuts, Common, Group Home and more...



Big up DJ MK for this one. He's unearthed another huge box of tapes and I managed to grab a few treats the other night, so best believe theres a few goodies on the way!

DJ Riz & DJ Eclipse - Halftime Show with Prince Paul (1998)

Riz & Eclipse on their WNYU show back in December 98. The show was an old school special so expect lots of 80s/early 90s material, plus Prince Paul is in the studio promoting his 'A Prince Among Thieves' album.
