Hip hop is something that resides deep in our soul, the culture is beautiful its self expression in its rawest form. Growing up hip hop was more than music, it was my life. Certain songs bring back certain memories, certain memories bring back songs, its funny. HHTT has a deep love for where we grew up and always love to put on for our city. Chilling on Park Ave we noticed the art on the Leitrim Pub wall and decided to post up, seeing the art made me think of how much I still love hip hop and love being from the City of Wor.

Artifacts – Wrong Side Of Da Tracks

1994

artifacts

Here is a track I will never forget, its from the group Artifacts and the song is Wrong Side Of Da Tracks. The beat is a bass filled smooth melody that is as rugged as hell but still maintains its smoothness. Artifacts was El Da Sensei and Tame One both from Newark, this track was there homage to graffiti which in my opinion is a damn good tribute. When I first started rapping this would be one of the beats everyone jumped on, T.O.D. and I filled notebooks to this shit right here. Download Artifacts – Wrong Side Of Da Tracks
