Track:Live At The Barbecue
So maybe at the time of release this song was not really a collaboration, but the fact that the artist that wasn't in the group just so happened to go on to super-stardom, I would say it fits the bill. Main Source featured two Canadians and New York-based producer (Large Professor) who you may owe for launching the career of the most famous of Queensbridge based emcees. What doesn't make this...

Track:
My contribution to Hip-Hop Thursday.This was the only video I could find on Youtube. The beginning and end are chopped so it jumps right into Large Professor's vocals. This track was *the jam* when it dropped. Classic album which also includes _Live At The BBQ_ (featuring *Nas* and *Akinyele*), _Just Hangin' Out_, and _Just a Friendly Game of Baseball_.I also copped this album *on vinyl* off eb...

Throwback Thursday - Main Source

Artist:
So today's throwback is Main Source's "Looking at the Front Door." Large Pro goes pretty deep on this one here, at least compared to how a lot of emcees deal with relationship bullshit. I really wanted to use this one as today's song because I peeped this nice video of Large Pro rocking it with Ghost in concert recently. Which reminds me, if I'm not here Saturday, it's 'cus I'm going into philly

Track:Fakin' the Funk
Toronto + New York = (Sir Scratch + K-Cut) + Large Professor = Main Source. Apparently they weren't gettin along and Large Prof. left the group, and they brought in Mikey D. They didn't really go to far which is kinda common for artists of this era but whatever, I've been listening to this songContinue reading Study Sessions: Main Source - Fakin' The FunkRelated posts:More >
