Jay-Z rhyming on Hot 97

I was listening to the Jay-Z interviews on Angie Martinez and Funkmaster Flex and I noticed (besides calling Peedi Crack psycho) that he made it a point to mention he wasn’t freestyling anymore during these kinda media appearances. Reminded me of that first time I can remember Jay-Z being at Hot 97, same week that the Nutty Professor soundtrack had Foxy Brown, 12 O’Clock, Trigga and Smoothe up there too.

Had this sitting around for the past thirteen years or so. Wyclef, Lauren Hill and Pras rhyming over Funk Master Flex on Angie Martinez’s show, a few days before the Score came out.

Biggie, Puffy, Mase and The Lox (Styles P, Sheek, Jadakiss) rhyming on Angie Martinez’s show with Funkmaster Flex in early 1997. I think this was the last time Big was at Hot 97 and on NYC radio. via

Smoothe Da Hustler, Trigga Tha Gambler, 12 O’Clock, Foxy Brown + Jay-Z Freestyle On Angie Martinez Show Hot 97 – July 1996 / audio

Another tape rip from July 1996, recorded from Hot 97 and Angie Martinez’s 6 – 10pm show featuring freestyles by Smoothe Da Hustler, Trigga, 12 O’Clock (Brooklyn Zu, Wu-Tang), and Foxy Brown, who were all on the Nutty Professor soundtrack. Trigga rips it and Angie could probably take some credit for Trigga getting signed to Def Jam at the time since I remember Angie Martinez shouting him out as one of the better unsigned rappers out a few times. On some mid 90s pause tape goodness, I also recorded a quick Jay-Z freestyle over De La’s “The Bizness” right after this from that same week (or what it the same day? I can’t remember) when he came up to the station for the first time, I can remember, promoting the “Reasonable Doubt” album. I was going to break this up into two but I thought some people might enjoy this is as is, because who doesn’t like a good pause mix tape?
