Known for its darkness, heavy bass, and fast flows; Memphis Rap originated in the early '90s with the likes of DJ Squeeky, DJ Zirk, DJ Spanish Fly, and early Three 6 Mafia. Perhaps most notably, it was Memphis Rap, along with Miami Bass, that laid the groundwork for Crunk and Trap. Memphis Rap was crucial to the Horrorcore movement, as its grimey and often sinister production complemented its hardcore lyricism. Additionally, it was the first style of rap to feature true tongue twisting.

Da Twinz, Hustler (Prod. by Da Twinz & Archie Baldhead) [1995?]
Shout out to The Shocker for uploading this junt 🔥.
The first MHV tape and the first II Black tape. Da Twinz were II Black and Lil Twin/Keno. Both Da Twinz and Archie Baldhead produced the tracks on this tape; "Hustler" and "Hustler (Instrumental)" were produced by Archie and "Ain't No Looking Back" was produced by II Black, not sure who was responsible for the production of "What's Up" but it sounds like it could've been produced by Lil Twin.
