R.I.P. JUNCLASSIC

It’s with a heavy heart I say Rest In Peace to my homie Junclassic. I read this on his page last week and thought it was about someone else, then I saw it on my homie Weapon ESP page and was hit with a gut punch. Truly devastating he was such a great guy and a great MC. This has been a hard couple years for the Czar squad, we’ve lost so many…

Jun just last year hit me up to send me a cassette tape he had of himself freestyling at Hofstra University and what I believe to be 1998/99. I’m glad he sent the tape because this is unreleased and his first appearance on radio and he entrusted me to digitize it. I sent the files to Jun but I don’t think he ever released it to anyone.

I got his permission at the time to release it but was waiting for the right time, sadly I didn’t think a time of heartbreak would be the time. This sucks. But let’s remember Junclassic for being awesome and a great MC. Below is his performance at Hofstra Radio in am Unreleased freestyle session, I don’t know the other MC’S name and Jun couldn’t remember either lol.

RIP Junclassic.
