B.U.K.A. Ent. Presents: 'Bringing It Home Volume One' 2001
There was a moment when the HOP music compilation was a thing and extremely effective. An album that would introduce or expose a myriad of rappers to new audiences. Soundtracks were a great example of this, in particular 'High School High, 'The Show,' 'Rhyme & Reason' and 'Soul In The Hole' were mainly HOP music but had more known acts attached to those albums. When 'Lyricists Lounge Vol.1' released it set a strong precedent in providing unknown rappers a space to be heard on a smaller label but larger platform. After that release many compilations were provided and were successful in their own right like the 'Supperappin' series, 'Beats & Lyrics' by D.J. Kool EQ, DJ Spinna's 'Beyond Real' compilations and more. Needless to say these albums caused mass stimulus to my brain and I was on the lookout for any compilations adjacent to them at the time. With Rawkus Records giving me an introduction to D.J. Hi-Tek by way of Black Star and hearing Lone Catalysts on a couple of mixtapes, I became aware of a "Mid-West" movement that could have easily gone unnoticed outside of the region had it not been for those acts. There was another compilation called 'Mission Control...' that highlighted those same acts along with a group Mood that took me down the Ohio path, which lead to me discovering 'Bringing It Home Volume One.' This album highlights many of the acts who were connected to Lone Catalysts and their label B.U.K.A. which stood for (Brothers United Keeping It Afficial). An extremely independent label that once again gave space for more unknown acts to be heard. On this album a few names were familiar like Verbal Kent and Usef Dinero but even for an "underground Hip-hop head" at the time these were all new acts. The songs that truly stand out on this album really do like the B.J. Bigby heater 'Surrender,' K-Mos 'High Noon,' Afaliah Afelyone 'In/Exhale' and Usef Dinero's 'Misc.' The problem is a maj

Quanstar & Poe Mack 'Big Boy Barred Up' 2023
Quanstar is a friend of QUANTUM LEAP RADIO and remains so due to the solid music he continues to provide us. On this sonic trip he teams up with producer/M.C. Poe Mack who has worked with the likes of Cesar Comanche the Entertainer and others on the current "underwater" HOP music scene. The two keep 'Big Boy Barred Up' simple with only twelve tracks and two features while Poe Mack ensures Quanstar is provided a musical backdrop that can't be described as "retro." Quanstar is comfortable in his lane of providing lyricism that doesn't aim to compete with the youth, instead relating to ears that can appreciate "grown man raps." 'Act Like Bosses' speaks to the new age of "wannabees" who get so inspired by negative aspects of rap music that they begin to believe they are in fact built for those aspects. Something that as of this date of writing can be applied to very well known figures in HOP music. 'Plugged In' is also a stand out track, as an examination of the effect social media has on human's thinking they are so smart we end up falling for anything, even our own lies to one selves. 'Big Boy Barred Up' is an excellent introduction to Quanstar and Poe Mack if one has never heard either of their offerings of music. More importantly another example of how HOP music will continue to produce for all those still interested in this ever aging genre. What did you think of the album?

SWURVHITTZ & Budda Early 'As We Continue On' EP 2023
In the next collaboration with Bronx born and bred D.J. SWURVHITTZ and Budda Early, an appetizer is served for those who never heard of them and a possible holdover for a future release. 'As We Continue On' is a follow up to 2021's 'Religion' EP but lacks the grounded effort that record had. This release feels more like an experiment or possible cutting room floor tracks but also is a glimpse into how New York is sounding currently. SWURVHITTZ provides beats that have minor to no sampling but lean heavy into bass and high hat drum kits. Budda Early displays lyrics that are not too deep and will grab the attention of fans of Maino or those still liking the The Diplomats era. 'As We Continue On' is an exercise in the two's chemistry and working on what could be created next. They also offer an olive branch to that "next chapter" with the track 'Food For Thought' which only features J Dillenger, an unknown rapper who had the most profound track on the release. Take about fifteen minutes and dig in to continued vibes of underground HOP music from the place it all started from. What did you think of the album?

Teflon_M.o.p '2 Sides To Every Story' 2023
Teflon, the unofficial third member of M.O.P took full advantage of the time we all "sat down" during the Pandemic, to plot a comeback. The rapper appeared on many features for M.O.P. and the Gang Starr family in the 1990's and also put out an album of his own then. '2 Sides To Every Story' is surprisingly solid and that is with all due respect. Teflon always seemed like he was a good "off the bench" player in the nineties but never had that release to show he could hold down an album. This release should not be overlooked for those wanting the simple formula of hard beats and hardcore rhymes. What makes the album so cohesive is DJ Premier and JAZIMOTO produce the whole album and do a great job of blending their two styles to make it seem like it was Teflon and one producer. Teflon's voice also play's a critical role in why this album is good, as he has always had a unique high pitch tone and a way to play with the ups and downs of his delivery, and in 2023 he did not seem to lose that edge too much. The album also keeps features to a minimum and those bare minimum's fit right in which is M.O.P., Benny The Butcher and I-Fresh on the hook for 'Baby.' The album starts off high energy on 'Out The Gate' and keeps that pace throughout the record. 'Life In The Feds' is one of the most memorable tracks as Teflon delivers his version KOOL G RAP' 'Ryker's Island,' that plays more like an audible 'Scared Straight' special as opposed to glamorizing the situation. '2 Sides To Every Story' for me falls in line with the numerous veteran acts who in the last 8 years have evolved the idea that HOP music can only be created the best in ones prime. What did you think of the album?
Singles include:
'No Fake Love, ' 'Life In The Feds' & 'Contraband'
