| |  | Taylor Clothing & 2520NYC.com Presents 'Street Heat Volume Three – Cop Up'
Posted @ December 4, 2009 by Admin | | | Mister Marlon from the well-respected East Coast Clothing line 2520NYC teams up with Taylor Clothing and the well respected mixtape legend DJ Cashis Kay for Volume Three of his ‘Street Heat’ mixtape series. This excellently packaged release comes in a DVD box with a DVD and CD mixtape. Let’s talk about the DVD first. It’s cut and edited in a ‘hood style’ which in our opinion is part of the appeal. It gets straight to the point and rather than the artists getting bombarded with questions he lets them breathe and have their say, allowing each act on the DVD to really get their character across. This is tha realness, tha unseen, straight to the point, raw footage. It features top underground New York rapper and Grand Larce, producer and beat maker Plan B, K-Dog, Mouse Dollars, Soul Food and Blvd Benny there also live freestyles by Stone Tone, Prez, Greaze, Q-Life, Spinnas, Pompaii the Great, Fishscale, Killz, Sleep 1, Billionz, Chuck Blicky and Chaunflow. Every MC on he DVD holds their own, and get to hear some proper gully bars. There is also some super sick footage of pimped out cars from Myrtle Beach which we enjoyed. On to the other disc and here we get a twenty-five track mixtape featuring an army of talented acts. The tracks hit hard with every track impressing. Underground East Coast MC’s like Mr Bars, Ike Turner, Mouse Dollars, Streetz & Young Deuces, Grand Larce, Julissa Hardy, Billionz, K-Dog, Berra, Blvd Benny, Soul Food, Ole Head, Killz, Purdey The Street Don and Dammary Echandia all represent hard and from the UK we get contributions from London’s Big Cakes and Bristol’s Streetz. Mixed with perfection by DJ Cashis Kay, this CD was a breath of fresh air, nothing weak and proper street music. You have to take your hat off to Mister Marlon. He has been in the game for a few years now and he still has that drive and energy to push and promote the realness. This aint no joke, you need this in your life… New York Rap aint dead, far from it, and releases like this remind us why. This package is excellent and so well presented. Go and BUY this NOW!
