This is one tape I was glad to save - it was recorded over an old bootleg BDP tape (complete with crookedly stamped ink and in-tact recording tabs) that was in rough shape. The tape was warbly and actually locked up, almost getting eaten numerous times during digitization. It required some re-recording and a little audio editing to get a clean rip.

Thankfully, it's safe now, which is a good thing because this one of the last episodes of Raw Deal from 1993 (the show went off the air in March). (There is a slight possibility it could be from 1992.)

Kool G Rap & DJ Polo are supposed to show up, but don't. There's a good discussion of how people from Trenton actually say "Trenton."

(Really surprised I couldn’t find any mentions of the latter shows in newspapers.)" -Laze
