Got some time to throw up some more treats while we're snowed in here in N.J. again. This time some old Wordsworth and Punchline joints produced by The Trackmastaz. After doing a search, I found a pretty extensive biography of Punch and Words here, and it mentions the Trackmastaz got the two a deal under Sony. I'm wondering how many tracks they made back in those early days or if they ever got released, but here are two they made as a team.
This one has sort of an odd combination. 50 cent with Wordsworth & Punchline. produced by The Trackmastaz. They use of one of my favorite breaks on this one, Sammy Nestico's 'Shoreline Drive.' The year on this is 1998.
Wordworth & Punchline featuring 50 cent
This one goes back to 1994. The Trackmastas use a Bob James sample and take a line from Grap Luva's freestyle on the Mecca and the Soul Brother skit, 'rock to the beat get wreck on the regular.' Stretch and Bobbito gave this many plays on their show..

Wow, I have a tape dub of that 50/P&W song & never knew better quality existed. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteProps for this find. I love shit like that. Unexpected combination!
ReplyDeleteIt's the 50 Cent I mean, obviously. Early 50 is dope. He was hungry - 10, 12 years ago.
ReplyDeleteThanks for rare treats like that!
