pimp of the microphone...



before there was jacky jasper, there was h-bomb, and before there was h-bomb, there was hdv, the "pimp of the microphone..."



click here to download the album.

here's the bio, taken from jacky's myspace page...

Jacky Jasper first made a name for himself hustling with woman on the rough streets of Toronto in the early 90s. Then upon returning to his East Orange, NJ stomping grounds, he immediately landed a deal with Set It Off Records; the price wasnt right, so he moved on to NYC and hooked up with legendary duo Eric B and Rakim. They offered Jacky a deal on there Street Life Records imprint, but again, the price wasnt right for Jacky. He quickly picked up his things once again for a life of leisure in Hollywood. There Jacky returned to his day job (hustling) while riding with industry outlaws Ice T and Kool Keith. Two short weeks after arriving in Hollywood, Jacky helped Keith record the now underground cult classic First Come, First Served and also made a guest appearance on Keith and Kutmasta Kurts celebrated Diesel Truckers.

After tearing down every show of the 2001 Vans Warped Tour, Jacky released his debut, Keep My Shit Clean, which featured guest appearances from Kool Keith, Ice-T, Chino XL and Roger Troutman.

Jackys connections on the West Coast run deep and include ties with The Dogg Pound, Ice Cube, Ice-T, Chilly Chill (who along with Jacky and Phil Cold produced all of Street Money) and Jacky recently attended the West Coast Music conference at the request and as a guest of friend Snoop Dogg. In September 2006, Jacky will release his long awaited sophomore LP, Street Money, which finds Jacky running around Hollywood on a mission to get paid! Street Money is primarily produced by Jackys brother, Phil Cold, and also formerly introduces rapper HOOD (Dr. Dres son) and will also feature guest spots from Jamaican superstar, Generall and legendary hustler himself Ice T.

Street Moneys lead-single, Mad Game, features the late great Roger Troutman (who is also be featured in the video for the track), will be shot as a film Soundtrack video, starring all the actors Jacky co-stared with in the feature short film, King Of Hollywood, which is still currently having final touches done to the edit. (co-stars include The Sopranos FEDERICO CASTILLUCCIO, Usual Suspect and Pulp Fictions PETER GREENE, South Central and Day After Tomorrows GLEN PLUMMER, BISHOP MAGIC DON JUAN, Bad Boy of Comedys BOBO LAMB, TODD BRIDGES, DJ LADY TRIBE and of course JACKY JASPER. King Of Hollywood will premier at the Palm Springs Film Festival and has already been invited to be presented at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival.

Jacky Jaspers Street Money will be the first release from Jackys Street Money imprint, as future releases include the debut from Dr. Dres son, HOOD, as well as the debut from Snoop Doggs brother Bada Bing. After the release of Jackys Street Money LP, the imprint will release The 7th Veil, a collaborative LP that will find beloved artists such as Rick James (The 7th Veil features the last recordings from the late Soul legend), Kurupt, Snoop, Ice-T, Flava Flav, Kool Keith, Ike Turner, Silk The Shocker and former Death Row recording artist Jewell appearing alongside Jacky Jasper.

Once again, exposing Hollywood for what it really is, the Hollywood Street King Jacky Jasper returns with a fistful of dollars and a truckload of chicks!

You don't know me but if you could re-up it would be greatly appreciated. I normally do not request music this way but I owned the 12" to pimp of the microphone years ago and since it went missing 10 years ago I been jonesing for it. If you could put it up. I'll check back as well.

PS - Even if you can do one track "pimp Of The Microphone" I'd be happy. Thanks.
