Wow! If I’m reading the comments right then you were part of the Bronx Zu??? That’s insane that you a part of hip hop history especially after going toe to toe with one of the greatest rappers of all time and win!!! Thanks for the upload fam I really hope the Home Alone will be uploaded soon. The snippet from the Stretch and Bobbito documentary was 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you. We want to upload our works but sample clearances are holding us up.
Someone please release that Bronx Zu demo, for the culture.
Legal issues with copyright infringements has the release held up
@Connor I don't understand "being greedy" when we haven't been able to publish our music due to copyright restrictions on certain samples. No money has been, or being made. So how do you come to me being greedy ?
Would you consider posting the Bronx Zu "Home Alone" demo? It's impossible to find.
We will be posting a compilation of Bronx Zu songs in the near future for the Hip Hop history buffs. We are working on videos to accompany the songs.
@@BukesWorld PLEEEASSEEE Make that happen!
@@BukesWorld still waiting
When??
@@BukesWorld when??
Hey brother I know it’s been a while, but I hope the project ain’t dead to get the Bronx Zu songs to the masses. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Sample clearance is the biggest setback. I tried playing some of our songs over some of my youtube videos and got smacked with copyright infringement cease and decists. It's crazy !!!
@@BukesWorld Understood, I see that even Stretch and Bobbito had some stuff removed off TH-cam. Would you ever consider private sale of the full broadcast? As far as I know besides Stretch and Bob (RIP 50 Grand and Big) you are the only confirmed person to have this tape.
@@BukesWorld Just upload somewhere else
Real shame that we can’t hear the music from this battle; maybe someday… 🙏🏻
Working on clearances
Who was the Bronx Zu? Why didn't u guys get signed/put anything out independently at the time? Ever considered going to one of those small labels that release older era material like Dopefolks or Chopped Herring?
Let me answer each question individually.
The Bronx Zu was/is a core group 5 guys and an array of independent artist that were all under one umbrella... Similar to the Wu-Tang set up.
Getting signed back then was truly a "who you know" business. We came to know a lot of people in our travels and performed on many venues including a slew of iconic legends of today.
We were young and to tell the truth, Broke ! LoL. Of course that answers the question of not putting stuff out independently. We were spending every dollar on studio time and trying to get into every venue we could. Not putting out music independently might have been a blessing because we might have been getting sued to death right now. We were creating music before the sample clearance era started. So getting them cleared wasn't an issue then, but it is now.
I never considered the small labels that release older music because I had now knowledge of them. Thank you for introducing it to me. I will do some researching now.
@@BukesWorld Thank you for taking the time to reply, its nice to get some background on you guys as info is scarce to non existent.
You should definitely make contact with Dopefolks, as I suggested you to them after watching the Stretch and Bob doc, and they said that they were interested with working with BZ but could not get a reach on anyone.
Like all of the other commentators look forward to hearing what you guy's have buried in the stash!
@@chyneaze will do. Just an fyi, that was me rapping on that quick snippet on the Bobbito and Stretch Armstrong Doc.
Would you happen to have the full segment of the demo contest ?
Hi DJ Mike Nice. Bare with us as we work through the legalities of posting the content and the remastering of the audio.
@@BukesWorld so how's that going?
Of course it's not going well at all, but we are still pushing to get the content released to the public.
where are the raps?
Hi Steve, Bare with us as we work through the legalities of posting the content and the remastering of the audio.
What biggie track was it ?
The battle was Bobito & Stretch Armstrongs Demo of the Week. This was a was a demo contest, no album released track. At the time, the great B.I.G. had just signed to Bad Boy Records and had not released an album yet.
Note: BIG's demo was fire as to be expected.
@@BukesWorld is it the demo they just recently released ? The version of mumbling and whispering or was it somthing different ?
@@BlackCrowVr I haven't heard what was just released. If Bobbito and Stretch dropped it, it is probably the demo we went up against. Send the link.
@@BlackCrowVr Here is the information you are looking for. It's from a documentary called "Stretch And Bobbito: Radio That Changed Lives".
