MURS - LA Leakers mixtape (download), a NYC show (tickets)

by Black Bubblegum

DOWNLOAD: The Los Angeles Leakers - Damn It Feels Good To Be A Gangsta Mixtape, hosted by MURS (ZShare, Zipped MP3)

Nick Carter has scheduled a single NYC show for September 10th at Highline Ballroom, tickets are on sale. No, not the Nick Carter of Backstreet Boys (don't ask how I know who he is)...

Nick Carter, professionally known as MURS is an American rapper. His pseudonym is an acronym that stands for "Making Underground Raw Shit." He is signed to the independent label Record Collection and is a member of the hip hop groups Living Legends, Felt, and the 3 Melancholy Gypsys - [Wiki]

Making Underground Raw Shit recently hosted the latest mixtape by The Los Angeles Leakers entitled Damn It Feels Good To Be A Gangsta, presumably after the ill Geto Boys track from the Office Space soundtrack. The mix features classic West Coast burners by Ice Cube, MC Eiht, WC, Kam, Mack 10, and many others and is available for download above.

In other hip hop @ Highline Ballroom news, Rakim has a show coming up, and the Roots play there on a regular basis with special guests like Pumpkinhead who joined them on stage at their July 28th gig. Video from that below...
