Eric B R.I.P. posted on 2005-08-28 17:01:38

One man died and another was seriously injured during a shooting at a barber's shop, police said.

Two men, aged 24 and 39, were taken to hospital following the incident in Long Island on Saturday afternoon.

The 39-year-old, Eric BarrIer also known as Eric B. who lived locally, died from his injuries.

The 24-year-old, also from Long Island, is said to be in a serious but stable condition in hospital.

West Camden Police were called to reports of several shots being fired in and around the barber's shop at the junction of Lozells Road and Wheeler Street.

A force spokeswoman said no arrests had been made and appealed to anyone who witnessed the incident or had any information about it to contact police.

One of rap's most influential acts during the 1980s, Eric B & Rakim made the sampling of James Brown records the main source for hip-hop's sound during the late '80s and early '90s, beginning with their stellar debut, Paid in Full.

While Eric B dazzled listeners with his turntable techniques, Rakim pointed the way toward the easy-rollin' style of the '90s with his laidback raps, though forceful in content. Each of the duo's first three albums achieved gold status, and they even managed the Top Five R&B hit "Friends" in 1989.

While working as a mobile DJ for New York's WBLS during 1985, Eric Barrier met William Griffin, a top MC who had grown up on Long Island. The two began recording together and emerged with "Eric B Is President."

The single appeared in 1986 on Harlem's Zakia label, and became a street sensation. Signed to 4th & Broadway the following year, Eric B & Rakim released their debut album, Paid in Full.

The LP's success led to a contract with Uni/MCA in 1988, and their second album, Follow the Leader, was released that year. Two more albums followed, Let the Rhythm Hit 'Em (1990) and Don't Sweat the Technique (1992), after which the duo broke up. By the mid-'90s, Eric B. had emerged as a solo act on his own 95th Street label.

It's good to see day ride again, i got to ride with him in philly in 95 when he used to do the sprocket jockey shows. There's only one word to describe his riding style ... powerful. The best I seen him ride is in madd matt, static, and the hoffman b.s. finals in chicago 94.

Peep sway and king tech's new album back to basics, vast aire's the best damn rap show, and high and mighty's new album the 12th man.

Any DJ's out there? posted on 2005-06-11 00:43:14

[quote="NotFreestylin"]My other take, I think a DJ's record collection says a lot about him. It is something you have to search for. There is a hunt to it. Digging.

Nuthin better than diggin in the crates and finding a classic. I once found paid in full for $1.99 at a broke down mom and pop store.

What was your last frame before this? How does the head angle compare to your last frame? I'm just curious of how much of a drastic change from a 75 or so headangle to a 73.
