Funkmaster Flex "Best Of 1995" (Mixtape, Hot 97)


Mixtapes are amazing, but if you truly wanna relive the experience of back in the day, sometimes revisiting old radio shows captures the full energy of the times. While Funk Flex was hard to stomach at times, his aggressive, over-the-top delivery was still infectious in New York City, and when he blasted off, we were tuned in, LIVE! In November, 1995, Flex did a Best Of 1995 mix on Hot 97; it was reissued in Japan on CD over a decade later. The mix includes tracks from Ill Al Skratch, King Just, Redman, Naughty By Nature, The Notorious B.I.G., AZ, Channel Live, Raekwon, Keith Murray, Grand Puba, Ten Thieves, Frankie Cutlass, Da Bush Babees, Brooklyn Zoo, Nine, D&D All Stars and more! It's radio so expect that vibe, but it's still quality music and very nostalgic. Enjoy...
