MIXTAPE MONDAYS: DJ Mr. Thing

This week's entry for "Mixtape Monday's" is called "The Kings of Hip Hop" by DJ Mr Thing. This mixtape was originally a double disc CD that Mr Thing did in 2005 with DJ Premier (I'll post Premo's mix in a few weeks). If you appreciate old school hip-hop then you're gonna love this mix. All the songs on here are from the "The Golden Age Of Hip Hop". Mr Thing start things off with some early 90's like Boot Camp Click (Smif N Wessun & Black Moon), then puts some De La Soul & Pete Rock into the mix & finally, he switches it back to the late 80's (Big Daddy Kane, Eric B & Rakim & Ultramagnetic MC's). If you like what you hear on this mixtape then you should definitely check out the upcoming events this week that Knyew is gonna be part of. First one is gonna be on April 19th for Super Cr3w's 11 year anniversary!!! This event is gonna take place at The Hard Rock Cafe on Las Vegas Blvd. Special guests include The Jabbawockeez, DJ Franzen and KNYEW's very own DJ Crooked. The next event take place on April 20th for our weekly Old School hip hop party at Lavo Nightclub in the Palazzo Hotel & Casino.
