'Enta Da Stage', the debut effort from the Bushwick trio of Buckshot Shorty, 5 Ft. Assassin and DJ Evil Dee, announced itself as part of Brooklyn’s notorious stick-up kid tradition in overt ways – scowling grills on the album cover, belligerent lyrics, fractured phonetic song title spellings, and the punctuations of mammoth shouted choruses (the musical equivalent of getting rolled on in a desolate stretch of Franklin Ave. asphalt). In Crooklyn classics like 'Buck Em Down' and 'I Got Cha Opin', heavily filtered bass-lines dominate the bottom of the mix while piercing snares and passing glimpses of high-end melody patrol up top. It’s a brutal but beautiful sonic package – one that remarkably set da stage for a Boot Camp Clik empire that still thrives today via Duck Down Records. They get the props.

This dude is nice. Acum pe bune, dincolo de toate melodiile la mişto, jewu' are flow şi carismă, aş vrea să aud mai multe piese serioase de la el.
