Roc-A-Fella Takeover at Hot 97 (2000) | Classic Funkmaster Flex Mixtape

When the streets were truly watching, Jay-Z took the State Property rappers up to Hot 97 on a Friday Night and lit up New York Radio waves with a full hour plus of live freestyles. Memphis Bleek, Beanie Sigel, The Young Guns Chris and Nerf, Oskeno, Philadelphia Freeway, H-Moneybags and Omillio Sparks were hungry as a MF and ready to prove that Philly was once again stepping in.
One of the best recordings of the mixtape era. Shared for historical reference. I do not own the rights. Enjoy, Comment. Subscribe.

Young Chris kiiled it for him and young gunz..nevver forgot his soldier...always remembered and respected that....

[@supremeameen8970]

Oshino shit was tha truest n realist!

[@Bottles93145]

This was sooo legendary. I heard it live on the radio and had this CD and listened to it religiously. Freeway was the star of that night he was definitely the unanimous MVP. O and Sparks got super busy on this joint and were the runner ups for MVP. Chris showed us he was supposed to be the future of rap. Beans was Beans that night and Bleek was Bleek. H Money Bags was forgettable and faded out a few months later. This was a legendary night in hip hop that will never be duplicated. When rap was rap… what a time.

[@KingB440]

The potential between Young Chris, Oschino and Omillio was crazy.
