RAP-N-BLUES.com hooked up with DJ 12Finger Dan and DJ B-Base, the producers behind the Boom Bap Masterpiece Collector’s Item. They wanted to share a little bit of their perspective on the album and what made them do it, the way it has been done. Listen to every track, spiced up with a little anecdote.

„Intro“ feat. DJ Premier
What could be more suitable to the mood for a boom-bap album than a intro by DJ Premier? Right, nothing! One of our top 90’s boom bap-heroes tells – after he interrupts charmingly our intro scratches – what it´s really the deal with the Soulbrotha project and which values are behind that.
Very funny is the parody of Biz Markie which gives the intro some extra fun. By the way, Premo appears with that intro for the first time ever on a german vinyl-release. For me and B-Base a really great feeling and a honour to have him on that album.
Your’s truly, DJ 12 Finger Dan
