BobaFatt’s fortnightly Friday throwdown is here to warm up your weekend once again.
40+ tracks in the crate, from the worlds of hip hop, soul, jazz, beats & bruk.

Tonight, a triple whammy of new releases on First Word Records, including the second single from papaya noon, Ruby Wood teams up with Illa J & Abstract Orchestra and we have the long-awaited return of Children of Zeus.

There’s also bits from a couple First Word alumni in the selection, namely Takuya Kuroda with Corey King, and Essa with J Felix.

New music also from Aesop Rock & Homeboy Sandman, Brian Jackson & Moodymann, Chris Read, Conbel Evrence, Crackazat, Deante’ Hitchcock, JD Reid & Reek0, Marvin Jupiter, MF Robots, Navy Blue, Nolan the Ninja, Sâlo, Seven Davis Jr, Smoke DZA & Wiki, as well as vintage soul vibes from Thee Sinseers & Sugar Bear & The Sensations, a timeless cut from Peshay, and a few more bits.

This week’s selection of stone cold classics consists of some big hip hop records from early July 1991 & 1996 respectively, turning 35 & 30 this fortnight, including De La Soul, Nas, Slick Rick, Leaders of the New School, Geto Boys, Heavy D & The Boyz & the Boyz N The Hood soundtrack.

Bobby in the mix, easing you into your weekend good & proper, we hope.
Turn it up to the red, your neighbours will love it.
