Description:
Jazz Child Records, 1996 // This one is already on YT, but the sound was terrible so I thought I'd provide a proper high quality rip. In 1996, the Cold Crush Brothers made a return 12" produced by DJ Parker Lee... which was pretty mediocre in itself, but the B-side featured another group, Parker Lee and an MC named Akbar, who later had a solo career. They worked under the name Mental Giants, and their 4 tracks were definitely the highlight of this dual 12" release on Jazz Child Records, a Chicago-based label although all the artists were repping the Bronx. Be sure to look for the other tracks here online, especially "AK's Groove". Recently, Mental Giants have resurfaced/reunited and are working together again on new material, videos and remixing songs from this 12"... search on YT to see their new work.
