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!

Jonwayne - 404 Trilogy (2009)

 


Final post of 2021 in the form of Jonwayne's 404 Trilogy from 2009! 

A buddy recently asked me to hook him up with Jonwayne's three 404 mixtapes, so I figured I'd post them here as well. "404 Blueberries," 404 Rawberries," and "404 Madness" were all released in 2009 via blogs and forums. They're comprised of beats that Jonwayne made on the SP-404. Over the years, as Jonwayne has continued to build a name for himself, these ones have sort of fallen by the wayside. So get em now - all in one link!

Oh yeah, some may not know that Jonwayne was a lesser known Project Blowedian. Peep a young Jonwayne trying to get on the mic at the Blowed during an Otherwize and Flako7 freestyle (with Dibiase on the beats) lol!
