Mr. Thing "My Favourite Favourites" (Mixtape, 2015)


Known worldwide as a DJ and turntablist, Mr Thing is a name synonymous with Hip-Hop. First touching the tables in 1987 he has been non-stop perfecting his art since and is now one of the worlds best. He has won DJ battles, both solo and as part of the Scratch Perverts, has a production discography that is the envy of most. He is responsible for some of the most perfect mixtapes and for a string of BBE released compilations including the creatively titled "Strange Breaks & Mr. Thing" and of course the rightly titled "Kings of Hip Hop" with DJ Premier. This mixtape in particular is entitled My Favourite Favourites; it features some of his 90s Hip Hop favorites. Get your head ready for 48 minutes of nodding and asking yourself "oh sh*t remember this jam?" You'll hear joints from Guru, Redman, Mos Def, Slick Rick, Organized Konfusion, KRS-One, Da King & I, Group Home, Mobb Deep, Jeru The Damaja, Brand Nubian, Das EFX, and lots more. Dig into it below...
