Underground Fossils was an indie rap focused blog run by myself (Dimxsk) and by Trylemma, who passed August 3rd, 2024 from liver failure of unknown origin at the age of 34. We mostly posted week or twice weekly, the bulk of which were rare rips we made, found on old blogs, he acquired through his insanely broad connection to the scene, etc. We did all we could to make sure we didn't post stuff that (1) You could still reasonably buy from the artist directly, (2) You could reasonably buy secondhand for cheap, (3) You could download easily elsewhere, (4) The artist(s) asked us not to for any reason. Being involved in this blog was some of the most fun I ever had, even if at times it was time consuming, challenging or intimidating (having a readership). It was the product of one of the best friendships I've ever had. If I could say one last thing, it's to encourage all of you: if you have the time and desire, make your own UGF. Find a friend who loves this shit like you do and build it together. It will bring you incredible joy, enhance your connection to this amazing community, and change your life in unexpected and exciting ways. I know it did mine. Love you all!

First Post! (Intro)

Hello, welcome to UGF. This is the first of hopefully many posts, mostly for me to familiarize myself with the format (not a computer person) and provide an introduction to what we are about. So, like we said above this blog is about sharing underground rap that's difficult to find. Stuff we've gotten from the artist, hand to hand sites, merch tables at shows, found under couch cushions, dug out of graves at midnight etc. Our goal is a weekly post, starting with a few items including something very special that's on it's way to my hands as we speak. Use the message thing on the side to request anything in particular, or offer something. Anything from the Holy Grail list we get our hands on will also be shared.

This blog will launch formally on 1/01/19.

Peace,
D.
