REGGAE-HIP HOP: THIS MAGIC MOMENT...
The early to mid-90's (hip hop's golden years in my opinion) produced a number of amazing remixes in which dancehall MC's threw down over hip hop riddims, collaborated with hip hop MC's, or mashed up familiar hip hop hooks w/ dancehall stylee production. Long before mainstream hip hop's current infatuation with all things Jamaican, the two worlds hooked up to bring us this blip in hip hop history. Yet the little remembered tunes that resulted still sound totally badass, as evidenced by this amazing throwdown I taped off the radio then forgot about until recently...
