BeFyne – If Lookz Could Kill | 90s Tapes

“After parting ways as Blaque Spurm with Rick Rubin’s American Recordings in 1996, Bobby “BeFyne” Humbert moved from Houston back to the eastcoast to Philly and began working for Contract Recordings and Ruff Nation formerly known as Ruff House Records. During his time there he recorded this album in Joe “The Butcher” Nicolo’s infamous recording studio. Produced by his two mentors and close friends Anthony “YZ” Hill and Anthony “Tony D” Depula (RIP), this was the first time in over 10 years they had worked on a project together from their Two Tone Production days back in the late 80’s. The album is a vivid reflection of what BeFyne was experiencing becoming an elder statesmen for underground hip-hop music as it was beginning to morph in the commercial powerhouse that it is today. It was also a testimony to his growth as an emcee and displays some of his best lyricism since his early The Funk Family and Blaque Spurm days. The production from both Tony’s was ahead of its time and can hold up to any sound on the radio right now. This is definitely a classic timeless masterpiece so sit back and enjoy.” – Bobby “BeFyne” Humbert Available in a limited run on 2LP, CD in jewel case, MC and digitally on all major platforms.
