Motor City Drum Ensemble: Raw Cuts #5 & #6 12" #TTLstaple but Nas didn't have to

but Nas didn't have to coordinate 4 separate voices

and promo-only Rapture tracks

The self-proclaimed "holy trinity of hip-hop" packs raps that'll crack you up and make you bust a gut (reference game is crazy)

heads were baffled as Ace was one of the first east coast heads to take on the west coast gangsta sound

yet Make The Road By Walking possesses its own style and soul that doesn't quite fall in line with any of those groups

Motor City Drum Ensemble: Raw Cuts #5 & #6 12" #TTLstaple but Nas didn't have toInstant classic from Germany's Motor City Drum Ensemble. Practicing traditional Detroit house techniques, MCDE has created something extra special here. A side, "Raw Cut #5" is flawless with great vocal samples, beautiful chords, and drums full of character. B side "Raw Cut #6" is a deeper, heavier retake of "#5" and comes off even more beautiful. If you missed it the first time around, consider this your second chance! Highly recommended. music
