Release Notes:
Sandinistas consisted of 2 MC's, Devine and Lon. They came
up in the Cobble Hill area of Brooklyn NY. A photographer
friend of Carlos' called Danny Castro hired the 2 to be his
photo assistants. During one photo job Danny happened to
hear the 2 cats rap and off the back of that encounter
decided to fund and exec-produce a project featuring the
'group'. He called in famed and much-experienced Hip Hop
producer Bess and his C-12 team, to produce a single and
according to Bess 1000 copies were pressed (as usual, i
highly doubt it was more than 500 - unless - as is my usual
conjecture, some were lost, burned or Harry-Houdini'd the
f*ck away). Most copies were sold to individuals, friends
and friends of the family and nothing came of it. They did a
few shows after the drop and that was it - another dope,
defunct Hip Hop act. All that's left is a crazy rare 12" and
now this re-mastered repress of the 3 original tracks with 3
unheard joints and 2 bonus instrumentals. And that's it!!!
Ha - But what's not IT is the end of our newfound
relationship with one of the most underrated artists to come
out of Hip hop music. This is just the first part of an
archiving of Carlos Bess' lost material.
