The Crypt Presents: Eastern Conference Records – Game Over (The Best Of E.C. 97-08)

Eastern Conference Records - Game Over

As you  may know Eastern Conference Records put out it’s last record in 2008 with The Best and Worst of Cage, since then the label has been assumed dead. I for one was a big Eastern Conference Records Fan and bought anything that dropped on the label. I’m not saying I held every release in to the highest respect, but I enjoyed quite a few joints off each album. This is my best of Eastern Conference Records album. I pulled joints from each full length album as well as some samplers and specials some hard to find some not so hard to find. These records are all OOP and a few of them are available via iTunes I suggest you copp some of their stuff if you enjoy the mixtape. And I hope I can help put some new heads on to what I thought was a good label for it’s time. The compilation is 76 tracks long and almost 5 hours of material, so this will give you lots of replay value. Enjoy.

The History of Mhz

mhz

In 1998 an unknown group of emcees & producers did two things completely unheard of; a) They made Hip Hop history by being the very first rap group ever to release music on a worldwide level- (as documented in Vibe Magazine’s The History of Hip Hop) & b) They released a single on vinyl. This 5 man squad consists of Jakki da Mota Mouth (”God Vs. Satan,” “Psycho Circus”) Tage Future (”Highly Recomended Vol.1″) RJD2 (”Dead Ringer.” “Since We Last Spoke” & “The Third Hand”) Copywrite (”The High Exhaulted,” “Control Control Vol.1,” “The Jerk Vol.0″) & Camu Tao (”Smashy Trashy”) who passed away on May 25th, 2008 after a two year battle with lung cancer.

Ok, here’s where this blog STOPS sounding like someone other than me wrote it. The reason we all (MHz) finally decided to say “f**k it!” & re-release this CD was a few reasons. Back in 2007 I saw it on Amazon.com for $89.50 & found it as ridiculous as our fans must have. Secondly, (in my humble opinion) this music was way ahead of its time, & thirdly, Camu Tao’s portion of the CD/download sales go to his mother.
We recorded TS between 1996 & 2000. This was before we had any outlet for our music. Regrettably, Jakki (my brother and best friend) were not on speaking terms, that’s why he’s not on as many of the old songs as he should have. We all used to be in this huge rap clique called “Opium Prodigy”, which consisted of myself, Jakki, his brother Terrell, Illogic (yes, that Illogic… aka Jawarr who used to run track at Cos H.S.) Pest, Curt Quinn, Ty Sticks, Floo-Kat, Tread, P-Pa Smurf, E.C. Lakeem & Camu (then spelled Ckcamaaü.) This Wu-Tangesque line up of MC’s was broken into 2 sides. One remained Opium Prodigy & the other half became The Megahurtz, a group name that I had come up with to give to my friends group but they weren’t diggin’ it. Table Scraps reminds me of back when we would stay up all night recording at O-Sharp’s studio on Morse Road & The Intalec’s basement sessions (where I recorded the better half of “T.H.E.”). This was back before anyone else took interest in our music, Back when Camu & I would do local shows for 50 bucks only to spend it all that night at “Tee Jay’s Country Place” (Barnyard Buster, please.)

Anyway, my ADD is getting the better of me. We met Tage Future later through Rashad aka Shaddy Shad the baptist (The 3rd , Motown recording artist). Even later, we met RJD2 at a show Camu & I had at Skankland’s (now known as Skully’s on High St.) Our DJ called in sick & RJ was there so we asked him if he could DJ for us. The chemistry was there. Me & Camu didn’t have a car then so on the way to his mom’s house on Lilly & Main st., we listened to Kool Keith or old stupid joke song tapes we used to make. This album is important to all of us for many different reasons.
Bobbito Garcia heard the demo in ‘98 after we all dropped it off at his Footworks store in Philly & New York (where Yakballz happened to work at the time). A month passed & we thought he wasn’t feeling it- then out of the blue our manager [Nelson Morales] received an answering machine message from Bobbito stating he played “World Premier” on his WKCR radio show (Voted Best Hip Hop show of all time by the Source magazine) & wanted to release it as a single. So there it is. Basically this album was never the official release from us as MHz, but s**t happens & the living members are working on the next MHz album entitled “Tero Smith.” (Tero being Camu’s real name.) Our mission as MHz is to keep our High School Friends legacy going. Hope my true friends do the same when I’m gone. Make sure to cop the version on Man Bites Dog Records & NOT NCS Records. The only version of “Table Scraps” that helps us & the Smith family is the version on Man Bites Dog Records. Look for this album at Best Buy, Barnes & Noble, Borders, ughh.com
