B
1. La Di Da Di (Doug E. Fresh & MC. Ricky D)
2. The Show Instrumental

A couple of old school hip hop classics here featuring Doug E Fresh and MC. Ricky D - otherwise known as Slick Rick tha Ruler. Both tracks feature beatboxing, in the place of drums, provided by Doug E. Fresh "One of the earliest recorded beat boxers, Fresh is able to accurately imitate drum machines and various special effects using only his mouth, teeth, and gums."
I'm not a massive fan of either of these tracks (I think definately prefer The Show out of the two) However Pac assures me they are "well good".
