This is Michael Mixerr. Today I will do an album review on the single called New Born Leader / Let The Horns Blow which was by San Antonio, Texas first Hip Hop/Rap group called 2 Hard 2 Hype with RCR from 1988.
2 Hard 2 Hype was the first Hip Hop/Rap group out of San Antonio, Texas that predated P.K.O. (Poundz Ki'z Ozeez) by a couple of years or so. 2 Hard 2 Hype was formed in 1987 when the Texas Hip Hop/Rap scene was just getting started with the creation and formation of their own music pillars of formation with groups such as Nemesis (Somethin' Fresh aka Something Fresh), Ghetto Boys (now Geto Boys), Bad Mutha Goose and the Brothers Grimm, New Def'nition, and Project Crew (ATX) along with many others.
Anyway, 2 Hard 2 Hype was the first Hip Hop/Rap group out of San Antonio, Texas to have vinyl pressed up that predated P.K.O.! Only 20 copies of their vinyl single were ever pressed up for JP Productions/J I Productions. 2 Hard 2 Hype was a local deal in SA.
Today you can find 2 Hard 2 Hype online at the most popular viral video website in the universe ever called YouTube. 2 Hard 2 Hype releases most of their songs on YouTube to the internet market of music these days. Some of the 2 Hard 2 Hype songs are old and some of their songs are new. 2013 is when 2 Hard 2 Hype debuted on YouTube.
They did a song on the A side called New Born Leader. New Born Leader was a well known hit in San Antonio at the time. The dub instrumental is just as dope as the original song.
Now RCR was another Hip Hop/Rap group from San Antonio, Texas as was 2 Hard 2 Hype. RCR predated P.K.O. as well too. They did a song on the B side called Let The Horns Blow. Now Let The Horns Blow was a selection of horn synth mixed into funk.
I rate this single, New Born Leader / Let The Horns, 5/5*****!
