More than 20 years after its initial release, Latyrx “The
Muzapper Mixes” has stood the test of time and with
this reissue is sure to enter the pantheon of certified
Bay Area classics.
Latyrx, the duo consisting of lyricists Lyrics Born
and Lateef The Truthspeaker initially partnered
while at UC Davis in the early 90s driven by
brothers-in-beats-and-rhymes Blackalicious and DJ
Shadow. This was the earliest incarnation of the
Solesides collective. Partially by design, and partially
out of necessity, Latyrx—and the Solesides crew as a
whole—became trailblazers.
Lyrics Born Remembers, “We really wanted to
explore. New styles, new subject matter, new textures,
new vocabulary. It came down to even wanting to do
words in the English language that you had never
heard in a rap song before. It was all about pushing.”
This double LP edition features the entire A and B side
from the original Muzappers Mixes vinyl release along
with a second LP containing material not found on the
original issue including the cuts “Storm Warning”, “The
Wreckoning”, “Watch Out” and “Ocho Puntos.” As an
extra special feature, the D side rounding things out
with an untitled and unreleased bonus cut.
