Unreleased Sweetness Part 6

info@rustyps.com (Rusty Ps) — Sat, 28 Jun 2008 01:22:52 +0000

We’re back! Unreleased Sweetness Vol. 1 has been released and now we are ready to continue on with our series.

This episode includes two beats from our good friend J-Todd, and one from your boy S. As with most of this series, these songs just never made it onto other projects. The first track, Super Funky, has made it onto stage with us in the remixed version for quite some time. This one is the original beat and lyric. J wanted to switch the beat up so we did and this version never saw the light of day until now. Track two, Check it Out, is a beat S made to submit for a movie project and Phantom Channel decided to lay some lyrics on it. It is definitely some different shit so “check it out” (haha). The third and final track, Freaks, is a tribute to the nightlife scene and all those freaky characters you see out there. The content is a little more “freaky” and after we started playing the track at shows we even heard words from unhappy campers about the lyrics. Listen for yourself and let us know what you think.
