Far Rockaway, Queens doesn’t have the most distinguished rap legacy so far, unless you consider Father MC to be one of the best ever. Turns out that there’s a crew out there called Hard White who are dropping some seriously anti-social, ignorant rap shit – just the way we like it here at Unkut Dot Com. Led by Un Pacino – who I’d previously assumed to be just another Mobb Deep weed carrier – the crew includes H. Brando, Young Boogz, Mummbles and Scott Caine. If The Rockumentary from a few years back was anything to go by, then the official album (with a production cast including Sid Roams and ALC) is going to be a superior demonstration of non-progressive street shit. While the crew doesn’t have anyone on the level of Ice Cube in his prime, the combination of abrasive beats, ultra-violent content and multiple vocalists flipping it back and forth brings back that feeling that makes you want to punch someone in the wind-pipe, just like when Straight Outta Compton dropped.
Hard White feat. Prodigy – ‘They Want Me Dead’
Hard White feat. Chinxdrugs & Cau2g – ‘H-Dub-Riot’
Un Pacino feat. H.Brando & Seymore Cash – ‘Blink of An Eye’
Sounds tight, when’s the album drop? Anybody got a mixtape link?
Wasn’t Serch from Far Rockaway? I’d almost forgot about Father MC.
Yeah, Serch & Rammellzee are from there too.
Lord Superb, too
thanks for the post robbie… ever since you put me on to the p brothers ive been checkin the up & comers you got on the site… you always in the know w/ that nyc shit
I assumed it would be made up of a bunch of hard whites, but I guess La Coka Nostra has that angle covered.
Far Rock aint been the same since Bundles… but lets see.
umm….hard white is definitely NOT anything like NWA besides just being ordinary niggaz with attitudes….
Hard White is the troof…
second er4se on that cept im not so big on the whole synthy -library record sid roams qb deal personally. Still check it but no Gas. out of curiosity did you have a change of heart on OB4CL2 been overhyped Robbie?
Definately not the new NWA, but the jawn with Banadana P is some ill brooding NY shit for the long, cold winter ahead.
damn – who produced ‘blink of an eye’?
copped that unpacino hard white mix tape a while back
bang bang game is ill
and so is party on the benches…
unpacino knows his weed game like a muhfukkah he knows all the high grade names and shit, shit I be seein out here in nor cal at the dispensaries.
crews who really grew together will always smash these boy band put together socalled super groups
yo robbie is that rockumentary tight? There’s this copy in the clearance bin at my music spot that I always contemplate buying. It’s only a dollar, but it’s a CDR so I’m hesitant. I liked their track on Product of the 80s, though.
Far Rock is still one of the most fucked up parts of NYC cause its so far out there its isolated. Its real ill
no doubt…rep that rock…shout to B13th & mott ave niggas…seagirt bully niggas…
Far Rock is definitely slept on as far as NY Hip Hop. That place is so gully & has seen no signs of post Gulliani gentrification. Hard White represent that in the music. Street shit at it’s finest!
H. Brando needs a solo. Best right hand man in rap, next to maybe Dino Brave. . .
hard white??? that name is an incredible PAUSE!!!
SHits Flames as usual …
Sick dudes… half of em incarcerated tho… Brando & Mummbles
How can you forget Rhamelzee (spell check that)?
Beat Bop
