Va - John Copper E.P. Vol. 2 (12”) Label: Not On LabelCat#: LIXX 0101HipHop, USA, 1997(?)Discogs Note: This is some bootleg white-label business, pretty common back in the mid/late 90s. Lots of spelling errors and confusing labeling lol. A-side has Alkaholiks & ODB with Hip Hop Drunkies (I’ll Have A Brandy Mix). B-side starts off with Dead Presidents with the tune Food, Clothes, Shelter, which was the reason I got this 12” as that song was hella rare (and good). That The (Cella) Dwellas has the last tune on there, a Nick Wiz production called called Main Aim, wasn’t a bad thing either though.
