This article seeks to outline some of the broader fantastical themes found in electro-rap records and relate them to the realities of hip hop practice and the broader social context of where they were created.
Great read as usual. Love reading about some of my favourite records.
Also, I only learned a few years ago that it was Tommy Musto from Musto & Bones who was one half of Dynamic Duo (with Tommy Sozzi) and only just now looking on Discogs saw they were two of the members of 3D who did the Tommy Boy Megamix. Sure you knew that, but I had no idea.
Thanks Ed, appreciate your feedback as always! Yeah, I didn't find that out until the 90s though, the who 3-D thing was a mystery to me in the 80s, especially with so many 3-Ds around ... (Hilltop Hustlers, Wild Bunch ...)
