Quincy Jones on Stretch and Bobbito WKCR 89.9 FM June 6, 1996

I was still a kid back then, but I was heavy into my tapes. So I told Stretch later, I was totally bootlegging that show and selling copies in school for $5. LOL!! I was hitting the dollar store and copping mad Maxell blank tapes and every Wednesday night, I would record WNYU's NY Live with Martin Moore and Mayhem and then Thursday night, I would do their second show of the week, and then tape Bob and Stretch. I never missed an episode. My little hustle was to tape the shows and then sell them because I knew nobody was crazy enough to stay up that late, but me, lol.

But you're right though, it seemed like they were beefing or something. It would be Stretch by himself one week, and he would be playing street sh*t like CNN, Mobb and Royal Flush, and then next week, Bob would be solo playing sh*t like Juggaknots, Tony Bones and Sir Menelik. LOL!!

I use to listen to Martin Moore and Mayhem too. Also remember when Mr. Cee and Mr. Magic had a show together. This when college radio had a Hip Hop show almost every night

Word! There really was a show on every night. You just had to know where on the dial. LOL!!

That was my favorite era of underground Hip Hop. You would hear sh*t way before it dropped, but also see records start on that level and over time end up blowing up nationwide. We were spoiled back then.
