The Posse Cut
July 2, 2009
After recently scoring Kurious’ classic 12” “I’m Kurious,” with “Mansion and a Yacht” on the B-Side I got to thinking…”Mansion” has to be one of the dopest posse cuts to come from the golden era, and there were a significant amount of similar tracks during this time worth mentioning as well. Posse cuts were the regular on most classic full-lengths from the 90’s, so why not do some back-tracking and pay homage to the ones that shined the brightest?
