During one of my treks to the WFMU Record Fair in the last few years, I found the 12” single to Smoothe Da Hustler & Trigger the Gambler’s Broken Language.
I had not heard the song since its heyday and was pleased as punch to purchase the hot slice of wax.
I had not played the song on my show until my show with guest DJ Rocambole.
After dropping the needle, I took to Twitter to announce I was playing the track.
DJ Rocambole went nuts as the drums pounded. It was his first time hearing Broken Language. As for me, that was the kind of microphone-ripping I have loved and missed from hip hop in years. I realized I would want more Smoothe Da Hustler songs to add to future playlists.
The timing to have reached for the single could not have been better because I found out Smoothe Da Hustler has new music. Visit here for more info and click play below to hear the classic song again if it has been a long time for you too.
