definitely agreed! i was following them not just for PUTS but GP, DJ Alibi, Y Society, SJ ( i still bump brand new old me!) New Jack, and some of CRAC/J&J. haven't really checked out Big Tone, Coss, or Paten Locke. I heard Late Bloomers are pretty dope tho...

no diss to tres, but i feel like they fell off after PUTS left... the quality isn't just there... my honest opinion. any thoughts?

I can relate to you on that... There are a few TRES artists that I don't care to follow: Big Tone, Paten Locke, Co$$, and sadly the last SJ album didn't blow my socks off either. I have thought that they have gone a different direction for a minute, my once complete TRES records catalog is growing more incomplete by the day! But I like the new ESQ & Chikara album The Succession

im pretty sure GP is on hiatus. They all used to live in LA, but got busy in their personal lives and are not currently making music as GP. thats the last i heard with GP when i talked to chikara...

Yeah where is GP!? They still making music? Love them.

Man who knows, The last thing they released was Electric Laser. Newman and Shawn Jackson (New Jack Hustle) did an album called Sound Check. Chikara has put out a few things like Trill and The Succession.

I hope to hell they are still planning on making music together! Hopefully SF Knight can give us a little more insight as to what is up...

well, we all know what Chikara's been up to...

Tres Records

edit to say that the Chikaramanga/Dr. Oop 7" is one of my favorite things in life

...Newman... it's been a while, where are ya?

I was thinking the same thing when I was writing this! He's gotta have a grip of beats by now...

word - that's a dope 12". Really enjoyable. I have a copy signed by the GP fam - apparently the place on the cover is now a shoe shop! Newman... it's been a while, where are ya?

Just saw this on Ebay, thought I give y'all the chance to scoop it up... Really rare and dope, besides the fact that Thes produced the track!

First GP 12" from their Donuts album, I believe it's their first single release ever too...
'88 Remix 12"

Goodlookin' out SLC!!!
