Salute to the UK homie, Donnie Propa. Completely my bad, this mixtape drop went entirely below my radar... until now! Released in May of this year -- ahead of The Beatnuts tape I already posted -- Donnie Propa released the Large Professor installment of his phenomenal mixtape series, Straight From The Crate Cave. Paying tribute to the legendary Queens producer, you'll hear solo joints and various production credits on numerous classic tracks. I've said it before and I'll proudly say it again, you won't find many artists/people who embody the essence of what Hip-Hop is more than the Xtra P. This man has never wavered; has consistently been a dot connector for some of the biggest artists in hip-hop and still holds his head in the city that birthed his career. A true stand-up guy and an ever-present talent in the hip-hop community. Props once again to Donnie Propa, for giving this man his flowers. Check out the mix below, and tap in the archives for more of his work...
