THROWBACK THURSDAYS.

We had to get some real professionals for the job, son.

Smif-N-Wessun x Raekwon = Classick. I remember when I first heard this joint back in 1998, I was blown away. Two of my favorite rap conglomerates, Boot Camp Clik and The mighty Wu-Tang Clan on the same track? Now that's what I call a good idea, son. Blazin through.

Smif-N-Wessun at the Brooklyn Hip Hop Festival.

Our NYC correspondent Shani Kulture goes "On The Run" and the 2009 Brooklyn Hip Hop Festival. He catches up with Duck Down veterans Smif-N-Wessun to talk about their career longevity, upcoming shows and repping BK to the fullest.

[NEW] General Steele (ft. Smif N Wessun & Stormey Coleman) - “Bucktown Baby”

Boot Camp! Here's some new audio from Steele from SMif N' Wessun off his upcoming project, Welcome To Bucktown, which drops on Cinco De Mayo. The album was inspired by the 1975 Blaxploitation film Bucktown. The soundtrack takes the listener through modern day Bucktown, AKA Brooklyn, as coined by the rap duo Smif-N-Wessun circa 1994, and explores the evolution and current conditions through the eyes of hip-hop Brooklyn artists. Sign me up.

[VIDEO] Tek (of Smif N Wessun) - "Spread My Wings"

I only listen to the Boot Camp Clik on 2 occasions...day and night. So I love when new Boot Camp stuff hits my computer, and you should too. Bucktown.

Daily Dopeness: Bucktown.

Home of the original gun clappaz.

Smif-N-Wessun a.k.a. Cocoa Bravaz a.ka. Smif-N-Wessun (again) were my shit in the mid 90's. Shit, I still fux with Buckshot and the whole Duck Down team. Their debut album, Dah Shinin, was an instant classic with countless dope tracks. Tek and Steele were the epitome of that low down, dirty, grimey, nappy headed, bubble coat wearing, Timbaland boot stomping, mean mugging, pistol packing, New York street rap. I loved it.
