This stage of the Q102 Hip-Hop Review featured Cool B, Big Al, and Jay-Ski.

Brief interview with Positive K and, as usual, great selection from Jay (Crusaders, Bahamadia, Funk Family) and a dope demo battle in the Street Sounds Showdown. Few tracks I couldn’t figure out. Drops from Positive K, Art of Origin (Chino XL), and Da Youngsta’s and a great Mahorn’s ad by Zulu the One Man Gang.

(Dated by references to Mother’s Day, reference to the new Masta Ace track from Slaughtahouse, and a reference to the LA Lakers-Phoenix game.)
