Underground Fossils is run by Dimxsk and often by Trylemma, who is on a hip hop spiritual journey in the Himalayas and may not be back for a bit. Posts are every Friday, usually some quality old sh*t but sometimes promotional posts or "reviews". We do all we can to make sure we don't post stuff that (1) You can still reasonably buy from the artist directly, (2) You can reasonably buy secondhand for cheap, (3) You can download easily elsewhere, (4) The artist(s) asks us not to for any reason. Rips will include our own personal rips, old scene rips, and random web rips.

Very Special People - Very Special People Compilation (2004)





For today's release we have something "very special". The compilation / self titled album Very Special People is a showcase of some of Los Angeles' most talented hip hop acts, performing over live instruments and production by James Morris (you've heard his work on such songs as "Lake Release" by G&E and "B-Boy Real McCoy" by Jizzm featuring The A-Team).

You'll experience such amazing voices as Neila, Abstract Rude, AWOL One, Acid Reign and Existereo transforming funky instrumentals into instant classics. Almost all of these songs are above average in quality and undeniably catchy; this album is most definitely a keeper.

Thanks to Devo for sharing this originally, I believe it deserves another online debut. Until next week!

    1. It is such a good release. That Acid Reign track is one of my favorite songs by them as a group.
