BEATDOWN RECORDINGS COMPILATION 15-TRACK PROMO W/ FRONT ARTWORK
Several appeared on commercially released albums, but the Beatdown Recordings promo contains freestyles, intros, outros, and shortened edits that may be exclusive to this CD. There's another reason this CD is interesting: it's from 2001, yet it features material that didn't reach wider commercial releases until 2002–2004. It may preserve early promotional mixes or edits.
Album Features
Title:
Beatdown Recordings Compilation
Record Label:
Beatdown Recordings
Release Year:
2001
Cat No:
Country:
US
Genre:
Hip Hop
Style:
Underground Hip Hop, East Coast Rap
Beatdown Recordings emerged as an independent hip hop label focused on raw, street oriented rap and underground talent. The imprint gathered turntablists, crews and solo emcees from the New York scene and beyond. This compilation highlights the label's connection to gritty, sample driven beats and hard edged lyricism. Featured artists on the roster include Ghetto Pros, Milano, Ill Bill and Non Phixion as well as guest appearances from a range of notable collaborators.
This promotional compilation collects freestyles, collaborations and full tracks pulled from the Beatdown roster and affiliate acts. The release features Green Lantern linked freestyles, posse cuts and standout collaborations with names such as Big Pun, Beatnuts, Dead Prez, Terror Squad, Kool G Rap, Kurupt and Prodigy of Mobb Deep. The sequencing mixes studio cuts with live freestyle moments to showcase the raw energy of the label. Artwork and sleeve present the Beatdown logo prominently and reinforce the DIY, underground aesthetic.

For CD Player
WHAT YOU GET:
This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.
Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
