Coming Soon...


When I was in High School there were no rap tapes I looked forward to more than DJ Tim's. They used to sell 'em at Union on La Brea and me and my boys would go every month to see if there was a new one, turns out he only made tapes every 4-6 months. Always choc-full of exclusives, new heat and crazy freestyles. Very tastefully mixed by Tim and usually hosted by DJ Ivan who I always liked because he didn't scream all over the tapes like S&S, Craig G or Clue.
After years and years I finally made contact with DJ Tim and he was kind enough to send me master tapes of 4 of my favorites... Which will all be posted here soon.

Get excited.

DJ Tim was a "Yay Area" mix tape legend. No one put the time and effort into the production like he did,. What I recall--in addition to Ivan from Pirate DJs--was that DJ Tim's tapes always dropped some shout outs from underground hip hop artists.
I still have Tim's "Droppin Jewels" in my car to bring me back when I need to reminisce.
Looking forward to the masters....
