About

Fans will remember DJ Hurricane as the man behind the wheels of steel with the Beastie Boys for over a decade. Now solo, he's connected with Busta Rhymes' crew, the Flipmode Squad, for a good old-fashioned posse cut. Hurricane works the wax, flipping the beat up and scratching, while the Flipmode emcees run a train on the microphone. Nothing complicated or innovative, just rolling breakbeats and a bunch of rappers bragging about how good they are.
