Always happy to post some Sauce Money. Rediscovered this having not heard it for years, and have been playing it all week...
The beat is lovely. Not something I've heard before so could be an unreleased Marley or Pete Rock production? Speak up if you know different.

DJ Rectangle - Behind Bars (1999)
That last Rectangle mix I posted went down well, and rightly so - every mix he dropped back in the day was heat. Here's one from '99. Bangers, blends and acapellas flying around all over the place and superbly mixed as you'd expect...

Don't Sleep #9
Ill Mannered Posse 'Scanlous' (1989)
Taking it to The Bay for Don't Sleep #9. I don't know too much about Ill Mannered Posse other than they were from San Francisco and lead rapper Cougnut died in 2001. A bit more research for this post reveals Andre Nickatina was also a member and their handful of underground releases fetch a few quid on Discogs.
'Scanlous' came out when West Coast rap still had a recognisable East Coast influence, in this case with some PE and LL samples being cut up in the chorus. It brings to mind early Compton's Most Wanted which is obviously a good thing...
This was discovered way back in 1989-90 when my mate Rob, who was doing reasonably well for himself in the acting biz (considering he was 11) and was doing a job in London. An American kid he was performing with gave him a TDK that included this song and also served as my introduction to the Geto Boys, in particular 'Do It Like A G.O', 'Gangster Of Love' and 'Mr Scarface'. Safe to say it stayed in rotation for along time.

DJ Step One - The Sunday Coolout (2015)
This is the first mix I've done in ages and as it was recorded on a chilled out, hanogver free Sunday I thought I'd go with some laid back selection. It's mostly R&B with a few lesser known joints and a couple of blends...

Marley Marl - In Control with Ultramagnetic MCs & 3rd Bass (1989)
Aaaaand, we're back! Everything is unpacked and plugged in at the new place so normal service can now be resumed. I haven't actually had time to rip anything but I found this on the hard drive and thought I'd give it a new lease of life. Marley Marl's show on the weekend of the New Music Seminar back in July 1989. 3rd Bass and Ultramagnetic in the studio. Off you go...
This must've been one of the first tape rips of its kind online, or at least one of the first I downloaded back in the dial-up days. The file info tells me its courtesy of the homie A to the L so shout out to him.
