American bboys In London Episode 3

Next Rapsploitation Sessions Line up

American Bboys In London Reality Show

So, as many of you may be aware, Raspsploitation Sessions helped organise a UK Tour for american artists, Headkrack, The Bodega Brovas & Diabolical Fancy. It went down between 14th - 19th April 2009 and was AMAZING...they murdered every show...specifically Rapsploitation Sessions in Ipswich.

They are putting all the video's together into a series of mini-episodes. Hip Hop Reality TV at it's best.... Below are the first two episodes where the guys lose a seat on the plan, Picnictyme gets put on another plane, Fishr offers to fly the plane to gain a seat & they finally arrive in England

Episode 1

Episode 2

YNR - FEEDING TIME @ THE ZOO

From what we've heard...this compilation is BANGING.... I might as well leave the press release to tell you how good it is - 

Artist: VARIOUS ARTISTS
Title: FEEDING TIME AT THE ZOO
Label: YNR PRODUCTIONS
Release Date: 25th MAY 2009

YNR Productions is undeniably one of the most respected, visited and followed sections of the zoo. With consistently amazing displays of skill and dexterity, and holding some of the most powerful gorillas in its mist, YNR has put together a hairy torso of work to show the United animal Kingdom precisely whats pooping at the zoo. 

Rare species like MYSTRO, JEHST, KYZA, SONNYJIM, DJ IQ, JACK FLASH, SIR SMURF LIL, THE LAST SKEPTIK, VERB T, KASHMERE, MICALL PARKNSUN and CAPPO all make their appearances with particularly fascinating and previously unheard calls of the wild. 

This collection of songs is nothing less than the sound of the wilderness, with its unkempt, dirty jungle rumbles and undeniable prowess. Don your macs, buckets of kibble and fish snacks or prepare to get fed to the lions

JEHST @ Rapsploitation Sessions Re-Cap -SOLD OUT AGAIN!

Just wanted to thank everyone for coming out to Rapsploitation Sessions last night...was a dope night. That was the quickest we've filled up the venue...was nice to see a queue outside waiting....if i weren't stressed to hell..we'd have been on our rock star shittt!!! Anyway.....

We started with a HEAP of set backs on the day...everything that could be going wrong seemed to be going wrong, but we got through it.....we unfortunately couldn't set the stage up in time due to all the stresses...but a live night was still had by all


Brotherman tore it down with Stranger & DJ Flips!!!! Brotherman is one of the dopest acts coming up so chck out his album The Light / THe Dark.

The Bodega Brovas & Diabolical Fancy all the way from Dallas USA, murdered it..... they loved the response from the crowd and told me it was one of the top shows they've done. Baring in mind they've toured the whole of the USA, the crowd really repped for ipswich and hip hop in the uk!!..Biggup your self.

Jehst then took to the stage, hitting with all the classis and the new shit.....he brought along Micall Parknsun and Jyager who were dope as hell.....What more would you expect from a Rapsploitation Sessions night?




All in all, everyone represented from the crowds to the DJ's to the performers and the graffiti outside.

Biggup everyone that came along..


On a negative note...the toilets got vandalised...people tagged it up and because of this we've had to pay to get it removed and cleaned........that shit aint cheap.........I'm sure you can respect It's hard enough to keep british hip hop nights going and these things are not helping it so if you enjoy the nights please respect the premises. We wouldn't be able to get the artists we do without the swan's help and it's highly disrespectful.


Thank you for supporting rapsploitation sessions - keep on
Shout outs to : Jehst, Micall Parknsun, DJ Jazz T, Jyager, Brotherman, DJ FLips, Stranger, Brothermans mum!, Bodega Brovas, Diabolical Fancy, Keynote, Travii The 7th, Headkrack, PicnicTyme, DJ Fisherpryce, Nero, Delano, Paulo, ill Inspired, Muddle, jimmy Green, Diddy & Damian & The Swan Staff, Shumsz, Jow, Joe Sharman, Martin Yew, Carl Best, Sam Barker, UTS Grafiti Crew and everyone who came out and partied with us - everyone had a great time/
