The Wire Mixes Pt IV 'The Game Is Rigged'

The Game Is Rigged

The most recent of the wire mixes features Bodie 'I ain't goin nowhere, this is MY corner' Broades. Bodie has so many good lines in the series it was hard to find the right ones for the mix. He was one smart ass pawn for sure but it was a great shame that he never made it to be the king.

Part 5 of the wire mixes is coming soon. Can you guess the character?

Got Mo Fierce

The Wire mixes PT III - Got Mo Fierce.

Slim Charles was a reletively small part in 'The Wire' but he was there from start to finnish unlike most of my other favorite characters. A man who knew to move with the times. This was called 'Sewing MAchine' due to the quote I found for the beginning. Now it's called 'Jus Got Mo Fierce'.

The Wire Mixes Re Up Pt I

The Re-Up

It's a time for giving and at Christmas we all love to try to give away things that we have tried to give away before. So here are The Wire mixes from the last year or so. Yes, I am slow at doing them. I wish I could blame it on being a perfectionist but a few listens to the mixes will put paid to that theory. So, I have had a few requests to re them up and I am a generous soul.

Not only are they reed up but they are re mastered and they come with fresh new covers. What could be better.

I will add one mix every day till Christmas, kinna like an advent calender with Lil Fame and MF Doom behind the windows screaming at you about glocks and vats of urine.

The first mix is "Best Not Miss" The famous advice our main character, Omar, gave to Weebay about what happens when you come at the king. This was called 'Slow Flow' but we all listened to Stringer Bell's advice and are renaming our product. This was the first Wire mix. Part II tomorrow.
