Of Cise and Men
Vibes and stuff. Wah wah guitars. Deep bass. Riding drums. The intro to the demo album by Cise. One of the many projects that never saw full fruition but still a demo is better than nada.
NOTABLE QUOTES:
"... bike riding to a beat on the radio/ Mixing the city and country flow/ But when the dough rolls in city and country grammar comes together, yo/ It's a shame that these cats don't hear me though/ Niggas listen when the beat causes the heat to blow" - Cise

Buggin From the Boogie
I stumbled across this today at the end of one of the many 8-track tapes Mysterio kept in the archives. Here you will find Claw and E.N.S. bugging out in what sounds like a bathroom. Hilarious and fun stuff.

Trials & Tribulations
The song begins with a sample from HEAT and ends with a sample from Way of The Gun over a chopped up track created by Mysterio. This one allowed Anoir to get introspective in regards to his own life and dabbled in existentialism.
NOTABLE QUOTES:
"Observe the world around me/ Always will astound me/ Dig into my memories/ When I first found the/ Truth like a sleuth/ More wisdom than a tooth/ Guided me past my youth better than a 100 proof/ I drained through my veins/ Swerving out of lanes/ Thank God my brains never hit the window panes" - Anoir Akbar
Suckas
One of the great posse cuts from the 1994 - 1995 era of Universal Sounds. The Muppets bass line is in the background buried under several smooth samples from the time when soul music actually had soul. Mysterio credits MJB's great record collection which they both dug thru to create several tracks back in the day including this one.
NOTABLE QUOTES:
"No love for the backstabbers - the two faces - the egomaniacs who make tracks/ With aspirations of being on wax" - J.O.B.
"And please I'm hot - not a faker or a taker/ I send those not menthos but I'm the fresh maker" - MJB
"The Dragon slayer walking on the edge of sanity/ And when I reach your town that's a sure fire calamity" - Mayhem
"But the beasts be after me with feathers and tar/ So catch me chilling with Max where the Wild Things Are/ Ayo - suckas be aware of my Raw" - Spee*D
"Suckas they try to step up they get pounded/ They bring the beef so like beef they're grounded" - Claw
"Move swift the gift that's bound to uplift/ My raps stick in your mouth like a spoonful of JIF" - Moosie Moe
