Official 40th Anniversary LTD. edition STYLE WARS mixtape / hoodie bundle from ATW & yours truly

This was a project over a year in the making. If you a fan of my mixtapes, you should recognize this soundbit I use over and over…

You gotta do everything… if you specialize in one thing, you can’t call yourself an ALL OUT KING…

That saying was lifted from the movie STYLE WARS, one of my favorite #hiphop documentaries of all time.

For the 40th anniversary I made an official mixtape to celebrate. It’s part of this bundle by ATW . There will only be 83 of these pressed up, hand numbered .

Now not sure how many are left as this is a limited release, so if you wanna cop it, DO NOT DILLY DALLY.

How Style Wars helped me make Warmfuzzy and the All Out King mixtape series

After I did the Sweeet Series, clinic I had this bright idea to try to make 6 mixtapes in 6 months. I was going to call it the “All Out King” mixtape series. I did end up making the series, tadalafil but it took me about 7 years to finish.

lf you specialize in one thing,
you really can’t call yourself an all-out king. – min one from style wars

This quote from Min one became the whole idea for the new series. I was going to showcase my range of music knowledge by creating mixtapes of different genres. To be the music equivalent of a graffiti all out king.

And from this quote, Warmfuzzy, Filthy, Extraordinary, Oscillate Wildly, Music For When Nobody’s Looking and Original All Out king were Born. Each mixtape part of the same series BUT of very distinctive genres / subject matter. At that time it wasn’t that common place. You were not going to here De La Soul and the Cure on the same mixtape, unless it was in like a kitchy/campy sort of mash up way. The intent of these mixes was to keep the original integrity of the music and figure out how to connect everything.

First up in this was my valentine’s day mix warm fuzzy. We just gave it an official release via thefuture.fm

Shouts out to Haena Kang who did the artwork for the whole mixtape series.
