HD's b-sides and 12" cash $$$$$ mix



Homeliss Derilex are one of my favorite Hip-hop groups of the 90's.
Featuring MC 50 Grand (aka Grand the Visitor) with beats by The Architect. The group hails from San Francisco and were doing their thing, when Peanut butter Wolf picked them up as one of the first press 12" vinyl of the young stones throw catalog (cash money 12"). The Architect is now pretty well known, he has worked with Rubix, Planet Asia and many other west coast groups. He has put out a couple of dope instrumental lp as well.



In 2003 stones throw re-released the rare HD's ep "Fraudulent" (only on wax) Original released around 94. In 2005 the group would release "Fraudulent the album" with 8 addition tracks to make it a full album. The lp version did feature 2 tracks that were left off the cd release and they are contained in this B-Sides Collection Also included is the Cash Money 12" with two additional remixes of the song. The song max mode (prod PBW) was a classic sleeper that was released as a solo 50 grand track (amazing vinyl only track). This mix is 10 tracks in all so enjoy. If you dont know who these guys are I would definitly look out from anything produced by the Architect, and the Grand Visitor is about to release his first solo album. As far as the other HD albums they have put out 2 lp recently which are "Raise it Up" and "HD's Vs. The Sp-1200" both dope as hell.
