Respecta.is - The Ultimate Hip Hop Portal

This project started up about 4 years ago. Tabb licensed us the "Brothers in Da Hood" joint, a known Heavy Grail - but we were always looking for more tracks to make a solid project. It took a series of collectors and hardcore Hip Hop Headz to take it to the next. PQuest, a collector and music afficiando from Germany hit me up requesting we release the Big Tabb demos from 1994 - some short snippets had been upped to the tube. Even though it'd been a while, I got back in touch with Tabb [aka Jakk Frost] to find out if he still had the masters of his early demos - he did not. I got back in touch with P and asked if he knew anyone who had seen the demo tape around. It turned out that a copy of the original demo tape had recently sold at auction. The buyer was known to Herring and after a few months the high quality tape transfers were in the hands [fins?] of Herring.

Oh and how is the record? One of the DOPEST on Herring. Very much reminiscent of a "classic 1994 album" - production comes from undercover Philly producer MG aka Mentally Gifted and the beats are on a Beatnuts/Extra P/Groove Merchants/Pete Rock tip - ha - sounds good right? IT IS!!!!
