Dilated Peoples – No Retreat
Year: 2000
Pressed on original 2000s vinyl, this track is a without doubt must-have for any fan of true, backpack-style hip-hop.
- Original 2000s press, not a reissue
- Features Evidence and Iriscience on the vocals
- Similarly DJ Babu on the ones and twos
- Authentic California underground sound, of course
The lyrics on “No Retreat” are indeed packed with the kind of raw, uncompromising content that defined the West Coast backpack scene. And with DJ Babu’s signature turntable skills, the production is equally as gritty and head-nodding as it gets. If you want to experience the sound of real, unfiltered LA hip-hop, this single is by all means a must-have.
