Juicy the Emissary

Proceeding with our recent retro theme, we present The Raps You Never Heard #5: “Film Noir” starring T Lit, our lurking protagonist in all black & white everything and a Dick Tracy watch waxing nostalgic over “Sid Ran.” T Lit is based in Denton, TX, where he’s produced for his groups Neighborhood All-Stars & One Deep and more recently, Mac Lethal & Lil’ Flip. For more check out One Deep’s Mixtape, Deja Vu. Artwork by T Lit.

Moving right along, our fourth edition of The Raps You Never Heard features Denton, TX emcee, Digo, who got his start in DFW hip hop with Fab Deuce and then Neighborhood All-Stars. Well he’s gone solo now, releasing his aptly-named debut Rookie Card last summer and decided to bless us here with “Blind Tiger” over “Easy for You to Speak.”

Shout out to Dig on the artwork for this one, too!

And now ladies and gentlemen, our follow-up series to The Beats You Never Had continues with a couple of familiar faces — or voices, rather. The Raps You Never Heard #3 features DFW’s Mark Spits and Solomon Infinite over “Ooooh.”

And without further ado, we give you “Certified Great.”

For our next installment of The Raps You Never Heard, we have Solomon Infinite and Chucky Sly, two veteran DFW emcees professing their hip hop seniority over youngster rappers on “And No One.” If you’re not from the metroplex, you may not be familiar with these two masters of the art, and your life sucks because of it. So you’re welcome for that. This is actually a remix of the original, also produced by Juicy the Emissary. Check that and other Solomon joints here and listen to more music by Chucky Sly here. Have a nice day.
