Hip-hop words are always spelled differently. For example, if you wanted to go to the store to buy chips, you’d have to spell it like, I whant 2 goe 2 da stoh 2 bi chypz. Anyway, as you can see above, the name of this album is Spin Psycle and “Psycle” is like a play on words combining “psyche” with “cycle,” making a brand new hip-hop word.
Regardless, finally we have an album from Moonshine that doesn’t suck. Mixmaster Mike, the Beastie Boys’ DJ, delivers what you would expect: a mix album that highlights his skills behind the decks, cutting like an iron chef, mixing like an interracial baby and scratching like a bitch with fleas. The cuts served up are an eclectic mix, from KRS-One to Gangstarr to Binary Starr to Deltron 3030 to Fat Lip to JVC Force.
He runs the range from old-school classics to new school next shit. From the first scratch to the last, this album is dope. Fans of the Beasties should check out the final track, “Three MC’s And One DJ.”
