Your Face or Your Kneecaps (2001) |
Deadringer (2002) |
Your Face or Your Kneecaps is the first release by hip-hop producer RJD2. It's a 39 minute DJ mix comprised of mostly obscure Funk records from the 70s & 80s that are beat juggled to extend certain drum heavy parts of the songs. Layered on top of the music are also a few hip-hop acapellas and vocal clips from the classic New York City hip-hop film Wild Style. Also included in the mix are a few original tracks produced by RJ, some of which are featured on his debut solo production LP Deadringer. At the end of the mix are 2 full length tracks produced by RJ exclusively for this album.
