Throwback Raps: Video: Vicious Beat Posse – Legalized Dope x Give The People What They Want
To give you an idea of what Vicious Beat Posse actually sounded like, here are the two videos that they cut for their album, Legalized Dope. As ICB told us, the title track (above) was the only song on the Vicious Beat Posse album that featured all four of the acts together: Superslim & DJ Candyman, Marvee V, MC Deb B, and DBX. These were four acts that really had very little reason being together in the first place. Even ICB admits that they were a “cookie-cutter group.” Superslim and Deb B may have been on the same light-hearted, party-rocking page. But DBX was distinctly more politically-inclined and Marvee V definitely had more of that street flavor. Hearing all four acts on the same track, struggling to stick to the same concept, is not a great look.
Of the four acts, Superslim & DJ Candyman got the first shot to break out on their own, hence the video for “Give The People What They Want.” Check it out after the jump.
Reading be fun though:
