Throwback music: Whooliganz
Aka the junior division of the Soul Assassins crew in the early 90's and notable for featuring group members Mudfoot and Divine (that second name later switched to Mad Skillz for obvious reasons), now better known as underground rap super producer Alchemist and Scott Caan, star of the Oceans 11-13 movies and son of James Caan.
Front if you want because what this duo looks like and their pedigree but those beats are hard and Al could spit when he was little dunny. He was like a baby Grand Puba if he had grown up in Beverly Hills instead of New Rochelle. Here's some YouTube rips of some other Whooliganz tracks:
Whooliganz - "Put Your Handz Up (QDIII Remix)" [YSI mp3 D/L link]
Whooliganz feat. B-Real - "Whooliganz" [YSI mp3 D/L link]
Whooliganz feat. Everlast - "Hit the Deck" [YSI mp3 D/L link]
I actually have some more of their stuff on a minidisk somewhere. If I ever come across it, I'll post some more if people are interested.
