Ruthless Radio
One hour excerpt from Eazy E's Ruthless Radio Show which aired on 92.3 The Beat. no clear date on this one, eazy doesn't seem to be in the studio so i'm guessing it an early 95 episode, likely taped in the weeks when he was hospitalized prior to his death. they premiere i smooth 7's underrated classic "coolin' in the ghetto" which started popping up on dj charts around april of that year, so that timeline checks out as well. the a-side is mostly old school, with julio quickly jumping around classics from he likes of the gap band and the time and kool & the gang and frankly it is just fantastic and refreshing fast mix of some of the best music of all time. b-side mostly features the core ruthless family - eazy, bone, atl, kokane, brownside - but it also includes a new-to-me track "pass the zigzag" by the oceanside based crew da i.b.s. which is apparently a g-funk era reboot of the wrecking cru adjacent beastie boys type beat group b-boy rage. i.b.s.' "zigzag" is a hard enough song that i almost wasn't going to mention that the bay did it first as always but i had to.
