HELTAH SKELTAH 101:THE DYNAMIC DUO!!!

HELTAH SKELTAH 101:THE DYNAMIC DUO!!!
Truly a Diabolical Duo, Ruck n Roc were perhaps 2 of the most devastating lyricist to ever touch the mic in the late 90‘s. Personally I like the “Rockness Monster” the best because he was the Darker, Grimier side of the pair, but that’s because I like it grimy. Now If you have never heard of Heltah Skeltah then you're in for a treat. They were initially part of a larger affiliate group called “Boot Camp Clik” comprised of Heltah Skeltah, BuckShot, Smif-n-Wesson, & O.G.C., All of who I discussed in detail in my previous blog‘s. But Ruck n Roc were truly the star’s that shined the brightest in the camp.Why?Because Both their lyric’s and style were engulfed in grimy darkness so they were not for everybody’s taste.But that is what made them actually stand out. Now they were “Gun Slingers” but not “Gangster’s” because they came from New York. and they spoke in a more defensive stance.Like don’t F%!k with us!!LOL!! Their first monster hit was "Leflaur Leflah Eshkoshka" as the Fab 5 with O.G.C. Now Unfortunately They would only release 2 album’s. Nocturnal &Magnum Force. And much like Killarmy the two broke up.( due to Roc’s label dispute’s with Duck Down record’s). Sad 2... because they were one of the hottest underground group’s of the late 90’s.let’s hope that their reunion CD called D.I.R.T.{wich was set for release on September 2008} will knock down door’s because Hip-Hop need’s there versatility now more than ever.Now even though they were “Gun Slinger’s” they didn’t talk about selling drugs to the insanity that they do today. They were just grimy ya now??? Now I know now-a day’s it’s all about “Swag” but Heltah Skeltah come from the school of grimy group’s like DAS EFX & NAUGHTY BY NATURE.And being “GRIMY” trump’s “SWAG” {in my personal opinion} Well here is there monster hit that put them on the map "Leflaur Leflah Eshkoshka" & “I aint havent that ft Redman” WHY???BECAUSE I KEEP IT CALLOUS!!! In this day and age of watered down, Iced out, commercial Nonsense!!!Keep it grimy yall!!!

So here is "Leflaur Leflah Eshkoshka"


And here is “I Aint Havin That” ft Red Man
