SAMPLE NATION 024 // FOREIGN BEGGARS

For me Foreign Beggars debut album Asylum Speakers is up there with 36 Chambers, a perfect Hip-Hop album. An Album I can listen to from start to finish, an incredible collection of featured artists and even the skits alone will have me singing along. Sadly they recently broke up as a group, so I felt I should celebrate the music they created over the years.

So here is two hours of some of my favourite Beggar’s tracks, mixed in with some new UK bits and pieces and a couple Original Samples

Enjoy

SAMPLE NATION 022 // DARK CIRCLE

Sample Nation 022 // Dark Circle

I was first introduced to Dark Circle’s music by a friend of mind Migz, about 15 years ago. I’ve been a huge ever since and finally got to see them live at the Foreign Beggars Asylum Speakers 10 year anniversary. You can hear the influence of their production in a lot of UK Hip-Hop and their music really still sounds fresh today. Enjoy this collection of B-sides, Features and album cuts.. There’s also a few new UK bits and some classic US Original Samples
