Let the Record Show, the crate-dug interview series in which musicians, rappers, producers and DJs discuss their favorite songs of all time as the tracks spin on vinyl, continues its third season today, as hosts Mike Pizzo and Warren Peace sit down with Los Angeles cult hero Murs.
Revealing fandom for each Q-Tip, MF Doom, and Boot Camp Click, Murs details his experiences as a young LA teenager that would later see him working alongside many of his influences via his Paid Dues festival or other collaborations. Behind the scenes tales of rap legends are revealed by both Murs and the Let the Record Show hosts.
Having just wrapped up the Over the Odyssey nationwide tour, Murs recently announced a two-part album with 9th Wonder, The Iliad is Dead / And the Odyssey is Over. The announcement comes with the release of two singles “Night Shift” b/w “Ga$ Station Gucci Belt”. This double album comes just 15 years after the duo’s initial collaborative LP for Definitive Jux, Murs 3:16: The 9th Edition.
Murs’ appearance on Let the Record Show marks the twenty-fourth episode in the series and the ninth episode released this year, following each Flosstradamus, Lil Jon, Kurupt, Mayer Hawthorne, Just Blaze, Masta Ace & Marco Polo, Georgia Anne Muldrow, and Cut Chemist. Season 3 will continue with Tech N9ne, Del the Funky Homosapien, and the long-awaited reunion of the High & Mighty.

[@MrBmick79]

I really like this show

[@pas8414]

Nice to see Tha Liks getting some love. Definitely one of the most underrated groups of the 90s. I first heard them on the Mad Kap album Look Ma Dukes No Hands. (Probably more so underrated than tha liks)

[@DJAUDIO1]

Amazing!!!

I remember meeting Murs when Living Legends opened for Hiero on their Third Eye Vision tour when it came to Cleveland. Grouch kept trying to sell me & my roommate his tape & didn’t believe us that we already had it. My roommate had gotten it and Murs’ “F’Real” from J-Rocc. We were prolly the only ppl at that show who knew their stuff. Murs was super cool. “For The Record” is still my fave joint from him.

They were hustlin those tapes hard back then!

[@MrERLoner]

I bet that was dope

[@sammyvargas4368]

I want that blue cassette tape

[@Rich_P_Anya]

Grind Date was def underrated. And Let's Ride was my shit.

[@santiagobracho5964]

Surprised no E-40 songs from the world's biggest E-40 fan.

[@DJAUDIO1]

What does murs say at 14:21 - 14:28 bothers him

"Keep Their Heads Ringing" by Dr. Dre

I get the feeling Murs doesn't like Michael Rappaport?
