R.I.P. IG Off

Just heard about I.G. Off passing and wanted to re-up these joints I posted a while back.
I.G. Off was definitely ill, one of the nicest of the top of the head. Check out The Halftime Show
tonight, DJ Eclipse will be doing a tribute to I.G. Off on the show and also check The 
Underground Railroad on WBAI this Friday to hear J-Smooth's tribute to I.G. Off

Here is IG Off and Hazardous along with Skam on the Underground Railroad, WBAI.
Sounds like DJ Spinna on the wheels cutting up the breakbeats as well.
I'm pretty sure this is the same freestyle listed on the URR archive page, from 1997.

I.G.Off, Hazardous, Skam, WBAI Freestyles


Also here is a re-up of the IG Off and Hazardous Demo I posted here.

I.G. Off and Hazardous - Demo


Peace to Emskee, MonkOne, J-Smooth
and the Underground Railroad crew.
