“In prelude to the upcoming Live Cypher Part 4 tonight we have decided to leak this new Magnum 357 freestyle and added it along side a JD Era remix of Ludacris’s “Do It For Hip Hop“. Tune in this Tuesday to Off Da Tracks radio to hear the cypher live that will include Magnum along side most of Toronto’s most hottest and most talented emcees like Bishop Brigante, Adam Bomb, Johnny Roxx, Mayhem Morearty, Rich Kidd, Peter Jackson, Scorcese and more. I want to give a big shout outs to Bizz, Off Da Tracks and Hip Hop Ain’t Dead It Lives in The North.” – EscapeMTL
Naw, it ain’t The Brass Tacks from Parma. This crew spells it Brass Tackz, is from B.C. , and made up of Snak The Ripper, Evil and Young Sin.
Here’s the ‘modest’ goal of their latest project “The Outfit”:
“Hello boys and ghouls. So here we are, Halloween night, and as promised we have something special for you. Be sure to always check your treats for razor blades and poison, you know this particular situation applies more than others. We are attempting to gain a very modest 10,000 downloads of this particular EP before we decide to go ahead and make a full album with all the bells and whistles. So if you are a fan of us as a group, do everything in your power to get us to 10,000 downloads and we promise we will construct an album so fucking great, you will listen until your eyeballs fall out of your head.“
