DAILY FIX: Black Moon “Stay Real” & “How We Do It”

by | Jul 11, 2011 | COMMUNITY

Today’s Daily Fix is a throwback from 1999. Duck Down Records was one of the strongest and most consistent labels to influence the nineties.

Today’s Daily Fix is a throwback from 1999. Duck Down Records was one of the strongest and most consistent labels to influence the nineties. With label-mates such as Smiff-n-Wessun, Heltah Skeltah and O.G.C, in my opinion, Black Moon shined the brightest.

“Stay Real” is the A-side single from Black Moon’s album Total Eclipse – The fourth, final and most slept on edition to a highly respected and super collectible underground Hip Hop discography.

“Stay Real”

Most notably, central V-A’s own Kleph Dollaz produced track #12 on Total Eclipse, “How We Do It”.
