The heat is on… Juneteenth 2021 is behind us, and Summer officially started on June 20.

Historically for Hip Hop, the Summer has had some Fiyah… classic albums released during this season.

This week we are celebrating 2 debut albums from the LA area that dropped…

June 20 1995 Mack dropped his debut “Mack 10”

June 24th 1997 the Lady of Rage dropped her debut “Necessary Roughness”

Lets talk about their contributions. Mack 10 born Dedrick D’Mon Rollson, first hit wax in 1194 on the remix “What Can I Do?” from Ice Cube.

We remember he was also a part of Westside Connection one of the best supergroups ever put together, with Ice Cube, Mack 10 and WC. Since then Mack 10 and Cube has had a falling out, when Mack 10 had to get at Cube’s cousin. But his career jumped off with his Priority Release. K-Dee baby, WSC, and Mary Jane Girls are featured on the album.. Mary Jane Girls are blowing on the track “On Them Thangs”, “Westside Slaughterhouse” had the Westside Connect Gang, and “H-O-E-K” had KD.

Album went gold and Featured Fo Life with Cube. Since then Mack 10 has sold over 11 million records, married and divorced T-Boz from TLC, and done some acting.

Lady of Rage, whom arguably many think she is the GOAT female rapper. Robin Allen was signed to Death Row records. She has some dope history. Back in 1988 she was apart of a group the Original outlaw Brothers from Queens NY, who were signed to a production deal with LA Posse. An 80s group that had hooks in many labels. Dre found out about Lady of rage after hearing vocals on LA Posse’s album “They Come in All Colors” 1991. 1992 the Chronic album, 1193 Doggystyle and June 24th Necessarry Roughness dropped produced mostly by Daz Dillinger, Easy Mo Bee and Preemo.

Big Bad Lady had 2pac, Rough Rugged and Raw track had Daz and Snoop. And Queen MC was born. Many hot cuts display her lyrical prowess including “Microphone Pon Cock”, and “Get With Da Wickedness.

Both Westcoast classic in the MIX today and all week.
