VA - Southside Riders Volume 4
Throwbacks 17-11-2017 By 2xDope
Originally I wasn't too drawn to this fourth chapter of the "Southside Riders" saga. Again, I will stress that, when it comes to Chicano Rap we should not judge a book by its cover. Volume 4 has a pretty bad front cover, I remember seeing this at the indoor swap meet in Oceanside back in the day and it definitely... Read more
Sykoalition - Born Again
Throwbacks 27-05-2019 By 2xDope
For years I wondered what their music sounded like. The only song I could find was on Familia Records' "Chicano Rap Volume 3". "Cali" held me off for 15 plus years. I would regularly search for "Psychoalition" to no avail. I just couldn't believe that nothing else was available by them. Their name is virtually unheard of, ask most people... Read more

It seems like it are always the groups with the most potential that don't get the opportunity to make their mark in the game. Instead we are flooded with, not gonna say any names, cholos wearing mittens flooding the underground sub-genre (yeah you guessed it). Norwalks Most Wanted is one of the most underrated groups in the chronicles of Chicano... Read more

Have you ever heard of "The Rule of 3"? Perhaps you've heard that third time is the charm. Whatever it may be, I will say that in terms of Chicano Rap that rule rings true, at least when it comes to compilations such as "Southside Riders Vol. 3", "Chicano Rap Vol. 3", and this: "South Side Stories Vol. 3".
